Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
In a saucepan, combine the white vinegar, water, sugar, and pickling salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar and salt dissolve completely.
- 2
Add the sliced Sweet Heat peppers, garlic cloves, and black peppercorns to the pickling liquid. Stir well to combine.
- 3
Reduce the heat to low and let the peppers simmer in the pickling liquid for about 5 minutes. This will soften the peppers slightly without making them mushy.
- 4
Meanwhile, sterilize your jars and lids by placing them in boiling water for a few minutes.
- 5
Carefully remove the sterilized jars from the boiling water. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the sliced peppers into the prepared jars, leaving some space at the top.
- 6
Pour the hot pickling liquid over the peppers, ensuring they are fully submerged. Leave about 1/2 inch of headspace at the top of each jar.
- 7
Use a clean knife or chopstick to remove any trapped air bubbles within the jar. Wipe the rim of each jar with a clean, damp cloth to remove any residue.
- 8
Place the lids on the jars and tighten until finger-tight.
- 9
Allow the jars to cool at room temperature for about 1 hour. Then, refrigerate the pickled peppers for at least 24 hours before enjoying.
