Quick Pickling Brine

  • 1 cup white vinegar
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp salt

Instructions

  • Slice the jalapenos in uniform coins. If you like spicier pickles, leave the seeds. If you want less spicy, remove some or all.
  • Peel garlic & onion. Slice onion.
  • Add the jalapenos, onions, garlic & peppercorns into the pickling jar.

Preparing The Brine

  • Mix the vinegar, water, salt, and sugar in a stainless steel pot and bring to a boil.
  • Once boiling, pour it over the jalapeno mixture in the jar until the peppers are just covered.
  • Allow the jar to cool at room temperature for 15 minutes with the lid off. Then, cover and store in the refrigerator.

Notes

  • The sooner you put the pint jar into the refrigerator the more crisp the pickled jalapenos will be. 
  • The jalapenos will stay fresh and good for bout 3 weeks. After that, test before consuming. 
  • These jalapenos go great in nachos, tacos, or an ingredient in salsa.
