pickled peppers
While this seems like a wee bit of work, its really worth it in the end. We use these peppers, in soups, stews, sauces, salads, Mexican dishes, egg dishes, etc…. You’ll have some brine left over; I freeze it for another use. Don’t throw away the garlic, put it in a container and use it in other dishes. These are best when they have sat for at least a month. This will yield 2 quarts.

How To Make pickled peppers
-
Step 1Wash & dry the peppers.

Step 2Cut the peppers into strips

Step 3Bring the vinegar, water, sugar, kosher salt to boil. When it has come to a boil add B & B mix, turn it off and add the whole garlic. Let this cool for about 10 minutes, remove the garlic “saving for another use” and cool the brine completely.

Step 5Refrigerate the peppers over night.
-
Step 6The next day wash and sterilize your canning jars and lids.
-
Step 7Bring the brine to a simmer, and while the mason jars are still hot from being sterilized, put three of the fresh peppers into the bottom of the jars, add the sliced peppers and then add the remaining fresh peppers and then pour the brine over the peppers, about ½ inch from the top.

Step 8Make sure you wipe the rims clean and you release any bubbles. Put your lid and rings on.
-
Step 9Bring your water to a simmer and slowly add the jars. When the water has come to a boil, start timing “depending on your altitude” is how long you’ll boil them. Once they have been processed for the correct amount of time turn off the stove and let the jars sit in the hot water for at least 15 minutes before you remove them. Make sure you hear a ping from each jar when you remove them and they start to cool.
