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 jalapeño 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! |
