Making cowboy candy for my grandson today and decided to try for a twofer, mundane challenge peppers and half and half May. As I was up loading and trying to think of a title I pushed for the trifecta and a six word story.
For those of you wondering, cowboy candy is sliced jalapeños that have been cooked in sugar and vinegar and then left to set. Very similar to pepper jelly except it is about the peppers instead of the jelly. These red peppers were to add a bit of color to them
@olivetreeann jalapeños were not as spicy as they could be so it wasn’t too bad this time. Thanks @shutterbug49 i’m glad you think so Debbie thank you @joemuli glad you like it Joe. They could be but they weren’t too bad. @dutchothotmailcom thanks so much Esther @summerfield good question. Maybe because it’s spicy and Cowboys like spicy foods? @thewatersphotos thanks so much Gary @ludwigsdiana i’m really glad you like it Diana thanks @30pics4jackiesdiamond thank you Jackie. Maybe you should make some for him they are very easy to do. @wakelys it’s not hard to make. Maybe Jackie will make some and share with you. @kjarn if you use jalapeños that are not too spicy it isn’t bad at all @linnypinny thanks so much, Lin @jacqbb very generous of you to say Jacqueline thank you
I suspect the candy would be quite a mouthful. I don't think there can be enough sugar to override the heat of jalapeños.
Nice half and half. The reds are vibrant and the tones warm, just like the peppers.
@randystreat I haven’t actually tried any yet but I did take a taste before I cooked them up and they didn’t seem to have as much heat as I thought they might. I’m glad you like the photo @pamalama How nice of you to take the time and leave a comment, Pam. Thank you.
