Time 1h30m

Yield 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups water
2/3 cup cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 dash salt
1 dash ground cloves
1 dash ground nutmeg
1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
4 jalapenos, sliced (seeds and all)
2 lbs sweet cherries, pitted and coarsely chopped
1 large granny smith apple, cored and chopped

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in a large, heavy saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer about 50 minutes, skimming foam from surface occasionally (I find a 1/2 tsp margarine helps prevent too much foam).
  • Cool; pour into an airtight container. Mixture will thicken as it cools. Cover and chill.
  • I'm going to make a double batch, when cherries are in season and freeze a batch I will post later and let you know how it freezes!
  • Times are estimated.
