Zubereitung von Candied Jalapeno Or Cowboy Candy
- **Prep the Jalapeños:** Wear gloves and remove the stems from approximately 1 pound of jalapeños. Slice off a small disc at the stem-end to remove the stem easily. Discard stems.
- **Slice the Peppers:** Slice the jalapeños into uniform 1/8 to 1/4-inch rounds.
- **Prepare the Syrup:** In a large pot, combine 2 cups cider vinegar, 4 cups white sugar, 1 teaspoon turmeric, 1 teaspoon celery seed, 2 teaspoons granulated garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper.
- **Simmer the Syrup:** Bring the syrup mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- **Add Jalapeños:** Add the sliced jalapeños to the simmering syrup. Simmer for exactly 4 minutes, ensuring they are gently coated.
- **Pack the Jars:** Use a slotted spoon to carefully transfer the jalapeños to clean, sterilized canning jars, leaving 1/4 inch of headspace at the top.
- **Boil the Syrup:** Increase the heat under the pot and bring the remaining syrup to a rolling boil. Boil vigorously for 6 minutes.
- **Fill the Jars:** Ladle the boiling syrup over the jalapeños in the jars, leaving 1/4 inch of headspace. Use a chopstick to remove air bubbles.
- **Seal the Jars:** Wipe jar rims clean. Apply new, two-piece lids and tighten fingertip-tight.
- **Can the Syrup (Optional):** If you have leftover syrup, can it in half-pint or pint jars.
- **Process the Jars:** Place jars in a canner, ensuring they are covered by at least 2 inches of water. Bring to a rolling boil. Process for 10 minutes for half-pints or 15 minutes for pints.
- **Cool and Store:** Carefully remove jars using canning tongs and place them on a cooling rack, undisturbed, for 24 hours.
- **Label and Age:** Once completely cool, wipe jars clean, label, and let them mellow for at least two weeks (one month is preferred) before enjoying.
