Make sure the jam is sealed airtight at the top. Canned jelly should be kept in a cool and dry pantry.<\/p>\n<h3>How long does jalapeno jelly last?<\/h3>\n<p>The sugar in the jelly works as a preservative and the jalapeno jelly will last in the refrigerator for up to one year. Properly canned jalapeno jelly will last about two years.<\/p>\n<h2>Jalapeno Jelly Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2043656\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Jalapeno_Jelly_TOHD24_7634_KaylaWidmer_5.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Overhead beauty shot for Taste Recipes Jalapeno Jelly on crackers on a plate.\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Kayla Blydenburgh for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Does the altitude matter for canning jelly?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes! If you plan on canning your jalapeno jelly, the processing time will look different. An altitude of 1,000 feet or less will use this particular processing time (10 minutes). If you\u2019re at a higher altitude, around 3,000 feet, add another five minutes. For 6,000 feet add 10 minutes. For 8,000 feet add 15 minutes and for 10,000 feet add 20 minutes.<\/p>\n<h3>Should I wear gloves while making jalapeno jelly?<\/h3>\n<p>Wearing disposable gloves while cutting the peppers is ideal because the oils in the hot peppers can burn your skin. Avoid touching your face while chopping and be sure to carefully remove and dispose the gloves when you finish.<\/p>\n<h3>What is jalapeno jelly used for?<\/h3>\n<p>While this particular jelly is delicious served with crackers and cream cheese, you can also serve it as a dip for fried foods like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/fried-chicken-strips\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/fried-chicken-strips\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">homemade chicken tenders<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/french-fries\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/french-fries\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">french fries<\/a>.
