Homemade pickled jalapeño peppers Pickled jalapeño peppers are the perfect in-between-meal snack. They can also be served at meal times on sandwiches, in soup, and added to various other recipes. Today, I will be putting up my pickled jalapeño peppers for refrigeration, but you can use the water bath canning method if you want to store your peppers for a longer period of time. I prefer leaving my peppers whole for snacking, but you can slice yours if you'd prefer. When slicing hot peppers, always wear a clean pair of disposable gloves for protection, and never rub your eyes while you're slicing the jalapeño peppers. If an accident such as this should occur, quickly rinse your eyes out under cold running water. Ingredients: 10 to 12 jalapeño peppers (left whole, cut in halves, or sliced) 1-1/4 cup of distilled 5% white vinegar 1-1/4 cup of water 2 tablespoons of minced garlic 2 tablespoons of dried onion flakes 2 tablespoons of red pepper flakes 2 tablespoons of Splenda or regul...
