Directions:
Slice jalapenos into thin slices and dice the onions. Place in a large pot with water and vinegar, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for about 10 minutes or until peppers and onions are tender.
DO NOT BREATH THE FUMES

Pour off most of the water-vinegar mixture, add the sugar and spices and bring to a soft-candy temperature to completely dissolve the sugar -- about another 10 minutes.

Place the boiling mixture into sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch head space.
Seal with lids.
