cowboy candy (sweet pickled jalapenos)
(2 ratings)
I don’t eat raw jalapenos, they are too hot and spicy for me,! But when you add vinegar and sugar to the pickling liquid, you are left with the flavor without the heat. Now that I can do! These pickles are sweet and tangy, with just the right amount of bite. But be careful, these are awfully addicting! Serve them on cream cheese and crackers, on hot dogs and hamburgers, or sneak them right out of the jar - in their naked gloriousness!
