Pickled jalapenos .

Came across this recipe on the net. Suppose you could use any pepper?

Using fresh TAM Mild Jalapeno peppers, blanch peppers for 3 minutes in boiling water. To prevent collapsing, puncture each pepper. Add the following ingredients to a pint jar packed with the blanched peppers before cooling occurs.


1/4 medium-sized garlic clove
1/4 teaspoon of onion flakes
1 small or medium bay leaf
1/8 teaspoon of ground oregano
1/8 teaspoon of thyme leaf (not seed)
1/8 teaspoon of marjoram
1 tablespoon of vegetable oil (olive, refined sesame, corn)
Cover with boiling brine solution prepared as follows:
Mix together:


3 tablespoons sugar
9 tablespoons salt
2 pints water
2 pints vinegar (5 percent)

Close the containers and process 10 minutes in boiling water, then cool.
Note: Jalapenos must be hot when brine solution is added. The addition of carrot slices adds color to the product.
 
This recipe sounds excellent! I've been thinking about pickling my own for a while - after seeing this I'm gonna have to now. Cheers!:cool:
 
Seems like a lot of herb ingredients that may end up taking away from the natural pepper taste. I think I would just drop all the herbs listed in the top and use the rest of the ingrediants by itself.
