The tradition of making jalapeno jelly in the Hill Country dates way back. It’s dandy for all sorts of things like slathering on your morning biscuit with lots of butter, or serving on lamb with a little mint stirred in. But undoubtedly, the most popular use for jalapeno jelly is as a party munchie served over cream cheese. Set out a plate of it with your favorite crackers or tortilla chips and watch it disappear in no time at all!
