Savage!
When it comes to omitting the heat – the worst part of it sits in the rind/ piff of the pepper, not the seeds themselves.
Granted Habaneros are quite small so would be fiddly, but just something to keep in mind and know!
Love your cooking pot Ma'am
Do they have a recipe for tomato gravy?
Online recipe ingredients do not match the video.
So looks like the tomatoes don’t have to be peeled. I wonder if Roma tomatoes would work in this recipe? They generally taste better once cooked.
I’d have to scrub my hands like a surgeon to get that habanero oil off!
Can we all just take a moment to recognize that this woman just raw dogged a habanero… Savage!
This will be a great recipe to use up my end of season “ugly” tomatoes!!🍅
It's been really hard these days after losing my Doritos Sweet Spicy Chili Tortilla Chips
3/4 cup sugar!! 🤯🤯🤯 Note to self: Don't eat tomato jam.
Yay 😀, a new recipe that I can try to use up my garden tomatoes 🍅, thank you!
Christie, you seems so much more comfortable in front of the camera. You are a great presenter!
AKA SWEET SALSA🫢
The cooks at ATK don’t only make some incredible stuff, the come off as some of the kindest and jolliest people on Earth. I just love watching them
Really surprised there is no Vidalia onion in this.
A jar vacuum sealer is great for things like this that you can't can.
I love tomato jam but I lean into the Italian side of flavors, adding a few sun-dried tomatoes jarred in olive oil and blended to a paste to thicken the cooked tomatoes— no need for extra sugar. It’s a delicious spread for sandwiches.
Will try this recipe with green tomatoes!
Mmmmm looks absolutely delicious and yummy 😋 😍 👌 😊 😜
I can't eat anything that has to do with peppers, or chillies. I'm allergic.
if you cant use alcohol as an ingredient for a usecase like this, what can you use as a substitute?
I am thinking of spreading it on some naan bread then top w cheese for pizza!
Is that Chris Farley?
My mom used to make jam out of green peppers
(169) Nice recipe; VERY few ingredients and you don't have to sweat out canning it.
Chili pepper seeds contain no capsaicin whatsoever. Saying they contain heat is a complete myth. The oils on the outside make them seem hot but they are not. Scientific fact.
Why can you not can this jam? It has plenty of vinegar in it? An answer would be appreciated
Why can't this be canned/jarred?
Oil your hands when working with chilies then wash with hot soapy water when done. No problems with caspician on your hands
I can't wait to make this!
