HOT AS HELL HABANERO ZUCCHINI JELLY
Talk about a face mask! This will melt your face off! Dare you try I hope you have a stomach of steel. My husband has been asking for a very hot jelly. My other jelly recipes are not hot enough for him. He asked for it and he got it. He loves it. I don't know who else would try it. Maybe Mean Chef? I don't know it's really really hot. The zucchini is in there because of the abundance in the garden and it makes a great filler. Now you can use this as a ingredient in BBQ sauces or glazes for chicken or pork. Spread it on cream cheese and serve with crackers. Add a touch to a salad dressing for a kick. It's really endless just use it as a seasoning. A good gift for those that can handle it!

HABANERO PEPPER JELLY
Blazing hot pepper jelly is addictive if you can handle it! The grated carrot adds nice color and texture. Pepper hotness and people's tolerance varies, so you'll have to experiment to find the right number to add. If chopping habaneros by hand, rubber gloves are recommended since the habanero peppers will burn the skin.

Steps:
- Stir the vinegar and sugar in a saucepan over medium-high heat until the sugar has dissolved, then stir in the carrot and red bell pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and simmer 5 minutes. Add the habanero peppers and simmer 5 minutes longer. Pour in the pectin, and boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Skim and discard any foam from the jelly.
- Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pour the jelly into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
- Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 5 minutes.

HABANERO GARLIC JELLY
Hot & delicious. This is hotter than the usual pepper jelly, so if you're not into really hot stuff, decrease the amount of habaneros to 3 (sometimes I've even used 7 habaneros for my husband who likes extra-hot, but I would not recommend this on your first batch). Serve over cream cheese and spread on crackers, use in a brie en croute, or serve with roasted meats. I like it on turkey sandwiches :) A note on pectin amount: I use one 3 ounce packet of Certo liquid pectin, which results in a nice soft jelly - it is set, but if you shake the jar the jelly will wiggle a little. If you want a really firm jelly, like the kind you would buy in a store, use two 3 ounce packets of Certo. Some people like a really loose, almost pourable jelly to use over cream cheese, brie, or to use as a thick dipping sauce - if this is what you're after, use just half a 3 ounce packet of Certo. Wear gloves when working w/ hot peppers. Make sure you use a very large pot when making this - the mixture will expand to more than twice its original volume when it gets boiling. "Cooking time" includes processing time.

Steps:
- Put habaneros, bell pepper, & garlic in a food processor and process until they are finely minced - be careful not to turn it into mush.
- Put the minced vegetables into a large pot and add the sugar, vinegar, and lime juice. Mix well, and bring to a boil, stirring often.
- Cook over medium-high heat for 5 minutes, keeping any eye on the mixture to make sure it does not boil over the top of the pan.
- Remove from heat and stir in food coloring (if using).
- Add the pectin and stir briskly with a whisk for 3 minutes - this helps to evenly distribute the bits of pepper and garlic throughout the jelly.
- Ladle the jelly into sterilized half-pint jars, leaving 1/4" headspace. Wipe the rims of the jars with damp paper towels to remove any jelly which got on the rims or the threads. Place the lids and the bands on the jars, just tightening the bands fingertip tight.
- Process in a boiling water bath for 5 minutes, then remove and let sit, undisturbed, for at least 12 hours before checking seals. It is important to let them sit undisturbed for 12 hours because the sealing compound on the lids is still cooling and hardening, completing the seal. While the jars cool, you will hear a "plink" type sound from each jar - this is the jars completing the vacuum seal as the final air escapes the jar. After 12 hours have passed, remove the bands and check the lids - press down in the center of the lid. If you cannot push the lid down any further, the jar is sealed. If the lid "gives" a bit, and you can push it down, the jar did not seal. You can either put the band back on the jar, and reprocess it for another 5 minutes, or you can just put it in the fridge and use it within 3 months.

Tips:
- Choose the right zucchinis: Use firm, young zucchinis for the best flavor and texture. Avoid zucchinis that are too large or have blemishes.
- Wear gloves when handling habaneros: Habaneros are very hot peppers, so it's important to wear gloves when handling them. This will help protect your skin from irritation.
- Taste the jelly before you add more sugar: The amount of sugar you need will depend on the sweetness of your zucchinis and the heat of your habaneros. Start with a small amount of sugar and add more to taste.
- Process the jelly according to the manufacturer's instructions: Different brands of pectin may have different processing instructions, so be sure to follow the directions on the package.
- Store the jelly in a cool, dark place: Once the jelly is processed, store it in a cool, dark place. This will help it keep its flavor and quality.
