PICKLED JALAPENO PEPPERS "TEXAS PICKLES"



Pickled Jalapeno Peppers

These sweet and hot jalepenos are favorite appetizers when poured over a block of cream cheese and served with crackers. Depending on the crop, some peppers will be much hotter one year and mildly hot another. Use the sugar to ajust the overall heat level of the pickles to your taste.
