How to make Pepper Jam:
- Wash and dry the peppers, remove the heart, the seeds and any possible white threads that may be inside the pepper.
- Cut the peppers into very small pieces. We have opted for making red pepper jam, but the truth is that green pepper jam is made following this same step by step.
- Tip: If you cut the peppers into small pieces, cooking will be faster and easier.
- Put the water with the vinegar in a saucepan and add the sugar to dissolve it.
- Even if you see a small amount of liquid, don’t worry, it should be like that because we always have time to add, but if we go too far we won’t be able to remove it.
- Likewise, as the jam cooks, it will thicken.
- Add the chopped peppers, stir and cook over high heat. When it is boiling, lower the heat and let it cook for half an hour with the saucepan covered.
- During this time, stir occasionally to prevent the pepper jam from sticking.
- Uncover, stir and check if the pepper is sufficiently cooked. If not, leave it 10 more minutes.
- Shredthe preparation very well so that there is a very creamy jam without the need for anything else.
- If the pepper is well cooked, it will not be necessary to remove the skin because it will be crushed without difficulty.
- Here you have a wonderful pepper jam that you can use whenever you like or even keep it canned for those days of tapas with your friends and family.
- With this pepper jam you can prepare a complete breakfast, make savory cakes and even sweet ones, since it offers an incredible extra flavor.
