Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 to 6 medium jalapeño peppers
2 garlic cloves
1/2 cup white vinegar
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
1 bay leaf

Steps:

  • Wash a wide-mouth pint mason jar and and its lid in hot soapy water. Then rinse and let air dry.
  • Thinly slice the jalapeño peppers. Fill the jar with the slices.
  • Peel the garlic cloves, leaving them whole. In a small saucepan, combine the garlic, vinegar, water, sugar, kosher salt, peppercorns and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar and salt (this will take only a few minutes).
  • Once boiling, pour the brine into the jar (including the bay leaf). Tap the jar on the counter to release any air bubbles. Discard any remaining brine, or top off the jar with extra water if any peppers are exposed at the top.
  • Screw on the lid tightly and allow to cool to room temperature (about 1 hour). Eat immediately, or refrigerate until serving. Keeps up to 1 month refrigerated.

Time P3DT35m

Yield 96

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 pounds fresh jalapeno peppers
½ cup thinly sliced white onion
1 large carrot, peeled and thinly sliced
2 cups distilled white vinegar (5% acidity)
2 cups water
4 teaspoons pickling salt
2 teaspoons white sugar
4 cloves garlic, crushed
2 teaspoons dried oregano
4 bay leaves
2 teaspoons black peppercorns, crushed
2 teaspoons cumin seeds
1/2 teaspoon calcium chloride (such as Pickle Crisp®)

Steps:

  • Remove the stems from jalapenos and slice into 1/4-inch thick slices. Remove some or all of the seeds, as desired, by rinsing jalapenos several times in a bowl with cold water and swirling until the seeds break off.
  • Inspect four 8-ounce jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until jalapenos are ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
  • Toss jalapenos, onion, and carrots together in a bowl.
  • Combine vinegar, water, pickling salt, and sugar in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir until sugar has dissolved.
  • Place 1 garlic clove, 1/2 teaspoon oregano, 1 bay leaf, 1/2 teaspoon crushed peppercorns, and 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds in each jar. Distribute jalapeno mixture among the jars, packing jars tightly without crushing the vegetables.
  • Pour boiling pickling liquid over the vegetables, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Remove any air bubbles and add 1/8 teaspoon calcium chloride to each jar.
  • Wipe jar rims clean and place lids on jars. Put on bands and close tightly.
  • Process jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes. Turn off the heat and remove the lid of the canning pot. Let the jars sit in the hot liquid for 5 minutes, then remove and let them cool for 24 hours. Wait at least 2 days before serving, or up to 1 to 2 weeks.
