preservation Pure Puree' pods in vinegar

Brian2112 · Sep 17, 2011

These are my puree pods that are in a little vinegar for storage.
I use this when cooking, I add it when cooking down onions when making dishes such as stews.
Intense flavor, intense HEAT!

Yep, put pods in a food processor and pureed them, then put puree in jar and add vinegar until it reaches the top level of the puree, then i gave them a boiling water bath..
That is it

It keeps the insides nicely warm on a cold wintery day.

We make a lot of stews during the time as well…can't beat them!!

That's a good quick storage solution man. What kinda vinegar are you using? :drooling:

Is vinegar the only thing used in a puree (other than the peppers)?

Im just using regular white vinegar, i think most purees are just vinegar and maybe some salt, i didn't add ant salt, i try to keep it as pure as possible....!

Nice puree you have there, how long did you process the jars?

Brian, those jars look sick! So you fill jar almost full of puree and then add vinegar til it reaches the top of puree? Hey...isn't scorpian spelled scorpion? Who cares, great idea brah! :clap:

Haha, my wife wrote those, she did misspell it... I didn't notice until now.. Lol
You got it, don't fill the jar all of the way with the purée, the gasses need some room... They yes, add vinegar to level of purée.

They look great! So when you open the jar to cook with, do you put it in the fridge? Can you process them again for longer storage? Thanks.
