Pickled Banana Peppers


I visit the farmers market every Wednesday and the last few weeks I would buy banana peppers to put on salad or pasta. They tasted fantastic without pickling.

I decided to make my own pickled banana peppers. I must say, YUM! I can't wait to add them to my sandwich and salads. I have already been opening the fridge and sneaking a few here and there.
ENJOY!
Pickled Banana Peppers

The BRINE:

1 TB Dried Dill Weed
1 1/2 cps. of Water
Quart of White Wine
3/4 cp. sugar
1 1/2 tsp. of Pickling Salt

4 LBS Banana Peppers (Washed Well)
Garlic
Fresno Pepper or Jalapeno (Washed Well)
1. Boil the jars and lids and the brine in another. While the brine is warming up cut the peppers.

2. When the brine is ready add a garlic to each jar and a Fresno or Jalapeno pepper.

3. Pour the boiling brine over the top and add the lid. Boil for a few minutes until really hot. Let cool. The lids should seal if they do not store in the fridge.

  4. I also love the ease - it is why I never can - no time (and I worry about - you know - killing people). This looks so tasty - and grand presents. On my way to Farmer's Market now...

  7. Looks like you got yourself a little supply there. I still need to try pickling stuff. I must get a move on that.

  13. Hey Miranda,
    We don't have this banana pepper over here in Malaysia. Can I use other kind of pepper? Great idea to have them pickled and thanks for sharing the recipe.
