Pepper jelly is a preserve made with peppers, sugar, and salt in a pectin or vinegar base. The product, which rose in popularity from the 1980s to mid-1990s,[1] can be described as a piquant mix of sweetness and heat, and is used for meats and as an ingredient in various food preparations.[2] It can be put in sandwiches, or served on cream cheese for a cracker spread[2] or used to make a pepper jelly cheesecake.[3][4]
