Jalapeno Peppers




What to do when your freezer is already full with jalapeno peppers from the garden and you just picked a pound or two more? Pickle them! This is a simple recipe to do just that.
1 pound of jalapeno peppers
1/2 pound sliced carrots
1 garlic clove chopped
1 tablespoon pickling salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
3 cups white vinegar
Dash of hot sauce (optional)
Bring vinegar to a boil, add sliced carrots and boil for 10 min., add remaining ingredients and simmer for 10 min. Pour contents into jar, (be sure they have been sanitized) let cool, and refrigerate! How easy is that! I am eating mine after 2 days in the refrigerator and liking them. They are not as hot as when I first picked them, but that is fine as they were really hot! I did not add any hot sauce. The texture is soft. I would do this recipe again.
