4 cups strawberries, cleaned, hulled, sliced or mashed

1 jalapeno pepper, sliced or diced

7 cups sugar

1 box pectin

Bring the strawberries, jalapeno, and sugar to a boil over medium-high heat in a large sauce pan. Mix in the pectin and bring to a hard boil for 1 minute, before removing from heat. Skin any foam off before pouring into sterilized jars and storing in the fridge.
