wow, roasting makes all the difference in the world!

thanks for that one, I tried it two ways and wound up going back to 
mix it all together with slight adjustments - the original is a bit 
too sweet for me, so I swapped out 2/3 of the sugar for mangos & 
molasses, tossed in an orange to get a bit more acid, and then traded 
half the vinegar for tamarind pulp (which is available and cheap now 
that we have latino groceries - yay!)

Thought I hadn't set it properly and was half-heartedly setting up to 
reprocess, but realized that my test jar was the only one that hadn't 
gelled. Looking forward to tasting it as it settles, it's nice and 
tangy with plenty of bite, but since it's mostly yellow bells with 
some poblanos and sweet hungarians, there's no lingering pain.  Great 
recommendation, thanks, I wouldn't have thought of that, and now I've 
got a dozen pints. :)
