Be sure to use the seeds from the jalapeño peppers to infuse the preserves with some heat. Serve as a condiment with toast, as a sandwich spread with smoked turkey, as a sauce for grilled or blackened chicken or pork chops, or as an appetizer topping with cream cheese and crackers.
I reduced the ginger, increased the cinnamon, and left out the nutmeg to suit my taste. This was absolutely delicious and I'm making more today. Thanks so much for the recipe.
This spread was excellent, sweet yet spicy, however instead of cherries i used rasberries and to make up for the consistency added 1 cup more than called for and it came out delicious! also instead of just chopping i finely diced everything and it came out much better as a spread that way. It's very easy to make, you just have to remember how to seal your mason jar so the contents don't have to be chilled till opened.
Can I even say how much I love this recipe! Perfect amount of heat. I used 4 jalapenos and the seeds from 2 of them. I cannot wait to eat this on grilled cheese
