A while back, I shared with you Vera Anderson’s recipe for Red Pepper Jam. Since I wrote that, I have actually tried the recipe, and here’s the result.
You may remember it started like this:

Red Peppers for Ready to Make Grandma’s Red Pepper Jam
The first step. Since she always like modern things, I’m sure grandma would approve of using the electric food processor instead of the hand-cranked food chopper.

Chopping the peppers
Then the serious cooking starts.

And finally, they get ladled into two jars–yes TWO jars is all that results from 7 peppers.
And to tell you the truth–I would change the name to Red Pepper Relish, because it tastes more like sweet pickle relish than anything else I can think of. But I am definitely looking forward to breaking it out for a family meal and spreading it on whatever meat we’re having. It will be great on ham, but also good on beef or poultry. Thanks, Grandma.
