Pickled Jalapenos

July 11, 2014 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 40 Comments

Hi Everyone!

As you may know I have a little thing for peppers.  I know shocking, huh?  Well today I took one of my all time favorite peppers, the jalapeno and made a recipe that is so simple, inexpensive and darn good, that I can’t believe I waited so long to make it, crazy!  So today’s recipe is Pickled Jalapenos!  Oh yeah!!
Pickled Jalapenos
I know you can buy jalapenos in a jar already pickled, but you know what, this is so easy and they taste so fresh, plus as I mentioned above, it’s pretty cheap to make! A jar of jalapenos cost about $1.99, but my recipes costs oh about .70 cents! I bought my jalapenos at the Farmers Market for .50 cent, but they are about .03 – .05 cents a piece at the grocery store. I planted my own this year, but unfortunately my zucchini plant got so big that it covered up my pepper plants and they didn’t make it do to lack of sun and water. So I bought my own!
Pickled Jalapenos
To make the pickled jalapenos I thinly sliced my peppers and rinsed them under cold water to tame some of the heat. If you want them hot, you can omit this step. Then in a large pot; I boiled distilled vinegar, water, salt, sugar and one clove of garlic. Brought to a boil, turned off the heat and added my jalapenos. Let them sit for 15 minutes and then spoon the jalapenos into a sterilized jar. That’s it! It took my under 20 minutes to make this recipe.  Please note though, this is not a canning recipe, so do not can these peppers.  🙂
Pickled Jalapenos
Let me give you some advice when making this recipe! If you want the peppers less hot, add more sugar to the vinegar mixture. I would say about 3 tablespoons to 1/4 cup. When handling the peppers, wear gloves! The oil from the peppers can burn your hands. Wash your hands immediately after handling the peppers. If your super sensitive to peppers, where a mask or ask someone else to cut them for you. I am highly sensitive to peppers, as it makes it hard for me to breathe. I hold my breath and slice away. I am a glutton for punishment.

  • ¾ cup filtered water
  • 1 tbsp. kosher salt

Pickled Jalapenos
I totally had fun with this recipe! Now I can put these jalapenos on burgers, tacos, salad, crackers, spoon them in my mouth and more!  I think I am going to make the same recipe but use banana peppers instead! Yum!

Have a great day!

Toodles,

Jennifer

    Bought a big batch of jalapeños at a farmers market for canning salsa. Had a bundle left over and didn’t know what to do with them – hate to waste! Well, now they are pickled and in the fridge! Thanks for saving my jalapeños!

      Hi Melissa! You don’t have too, but the sugar dulls the heat from the jalapenos. Try it without the sugar. Let me know how it goes for you. 🙂

      I just checked my peppers in the fridge and they are from 11/2014 and still just fine, I also have candied Jalapenos that are great and they were done the same time. When you make pickles from cucumbers they stay just fine too. Like a previous post says, there really isn’t anything to spoil.

    Anyone who likes spicy food, is going to laugh at only 10 peppers to a jar. 10 peppers is not a lot.but for anyone one who want’s a bit of spice this is good for them. Myself when I am not that hungry or don’t want to cook. I put on KD, got to add the peppers and sriracha sauce. Only way to make it taste good.

    I saw the recipe and questioned when I read equal parts sugar to salt, and regretfully, went ahead and made the pickling liquid. When I tasted it I knew I should have listened to my gut. Way too salty!
    Maybe it should read 1 tbsp sugar, 1 tsp salt??

      Hi Cathy,

      I’ll be honest, I’m not good with canning, so I don’t talk about the process. However, because you used vinegar and canned it properly, then it should be good. I have had my pickled jalapenos in the fridge for a month and they are still good. I think you are pretty safe, as long as you canned them properly and the cans are sealed. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do. Thank you for your comment – Jennifer

    When canning something, if it uses vinegar it doesn’t need to be heated. The vinegar brines it and it will last almost forever. Other than vinegar will need to be pressure canned or water bathed to seal the jars to keep bacteria out that makes things spoil. There is lots of info on internet about what to water bath and what to pressure can. I look forward to making pickling peppers this afternoon.

It’s time for my annual pumpkin bath picture. I It’s time for my annual pumpkin bath picture. I don’t know what it is, but I love to give pumpkins a bath. Don’t they look cute bathing in the sunlight with bubbles around them? lol
🎃
There are two methods that I have used  in the past; the chlorine bath and the dish soap bath. This is what I have learned.
🎃
My favorite and only way I wash pumpkins now is using dish soap.  It gets rid of the sap and makes them clean. I soak my pumpkins for about 20 minutes. The pumpkins will last until December. Plus if you keep your pumpkins after the holidays it will decay and grow pumpkins the following year. Plus it’s safe for animals that may nibble on your pumpkin.
🎃
The chlorine bath method will make your pumpkins last possibly up to a year. They take very long to break down and I never got my pumpkins to seed themselves. Plus it is not safe for animals in my opinion. Though Clorox Bleach says it’s safe, they just taste salty.
🎃
The key to washing pumpkins is to make sure that you get the area around the stem dry. You don’t want water around the stem. This could make your pumpkin rot sooner. So after the bath, dry your pumpkins off very good. 
🎃
Did you get your pumpkins yet?
.
PS if you are in the Bay Area, I highly recommend going to @threenunnsfarm to get your pumpkins. They have a wide variety and the pumpkins and are .75 a pound. I bought all these pumpkins for $42.

Hello Tuesday! Hope you are doing well. It’s sta Hello Tuesday! Hope you are doing well. It’s starting to feel like Fall here in Northern California. The mornings and evenings are feeling crisp. I can’t get over that we are in the middle of September. Where did the Summer go?
🎃
I’m sharing with you the corner of my living room where I store my pumpkins that I grew before I can take them outside. It’s been too warm for them and I want them to last through October. They have been doing well, as they have been here since the middle of August. 
🎃
I’m excited because this Saturday our local pumpkin patch will be opening. They have a huge variety of pumpkins and very inexpensive too. I’ll be stocking up. I just love this time of year.
🎃
Have a wonderful day!

I’ve taken a little break from posting here because I have been busy on the dogs Instagram page. It’s hard to keep up on both. The dog page is so busy with birthdays, events and engagement. They have a busier social life than me.

I am sharing with you the last view of my kitchen before it is filled with Halloween. I spent 6 hours yesterday cleaning all the cabinets, appliances, sink and floor. I even did the windows. It sure tired me out. I’m not as young as I used to be. But it is so sparkly clean. I did put up my Halloween and I can’t wait to share with you. The dining room is the next room to conquer.

🐾
Downlite Bedding sent me the EnviroLoft® Down Alternative PrimaCool™ Cooling Comforter. Isn’t it beautiful? It’s so soft, cozy, hypoallergenic and it makes me so happy. 
🐾
The comforter is 400 thread count, it has moisture wicking and cooling technology to help regulate body temperature, which is perfect since I get warm in the summer with all my hair and I like to be cool when I’m sleeping. A big plus is the comforter is white, I hide very well in it. It’s hard to see me. So mama can’t catch me on her bed. 
🐾
The EnviroLoft® Down Alternative PrimaCool™ Cooling Comforter also has a Scotchguard stain release fabric and machine wash and dry. It’s truly an amazing comforter.
🐾
Mama let me do this takeover today because she knows that I love @downlitebedding as much as she does. She said she has never seen me get so excited as I do when we get Downlite Bedding and pillows in the mail. How can I not get excited? It’s like sleeping on a cloud!
🐾
Downlite Bedding was kind enough to give us a 20% discount:  DYGEN20 
🐾
Have a great day and happy napping!

Happy Thursday! Here is a view of my garden that I Happy Thursday! Here is a view of my garden that I took a couple weeks ago. My garden really overgrew this season. I need to do some major work in it, but with the heat, it’s just unbearable to be out there too long.
🌼
I had a lot of zinnias self-seed this season which is cool, but they kind of took over. They crowded out some plants, so I need to get in there and pull some out. Plus being so crowded, they got powdery mildew. Yuck!
🌼
I’m thinking for the Fall making this area a little harvest pumpkin area. We will see. I have grand ideas in my head, but I don’t always follow through. lol
🌼
How your garden growing? I lost all my potted plants from the heat. 😩

Hello Monday! This weekend I made a little charcut Hello Monday! This weekend I made a little charcuterie setup for my husband and I. This is something that I just love to do. I could just eat this type of meal all day long. 

I am sharing the “All White Collection” from @bzaar_wholesale. Each piece to the collection is so elegant and can be used all year round and would be gorgeous around the holidays.

The tray is made of marble with beautiful gold handles. The cheese knives are gold with solid marble handles and compliments the tray perfectly.

I used the marble flower shaped bowl for putting chocolates, but would be so stunning to use on your coffee table, side table and more.

The cake stand is has a marble base with Mother of Pearl edging and has a glass lid to go over the top. I will be putting my cakes and cookies on it in the future, but for now I used it to place my bruschetta.

@bzaar_wholesale has amazing products for your home, great pricing and global shipping. The link is in my bio.

Do you like making charcuterie boards? What do you add to yours?

Hello, hello! It may be 100 degrees outside, but I Hello, hello! It may be 100 degrees outside, but I can’t resist putting out some Fall. Especially when you get new decor from @12timbers.  You would laugh if you came into my living-room. Half my room is Fall, the other half is still coastal blues. lol I’ll eventually change it all out.
🍂
Let’s talk the art work. Isn’t it stunning? My husband never says anything about my decor, but he keeps talking about how much he likes the framed art from 12 Timbers. I agree, it’s so beautiful. It reminds me of when I lived back east and we would go to Letchworth Park in NY. The colors are stunning and goes perfectly with the burnt orange color that I’m using this season.
🍂
I just adore the wooden cut out pumpkins from @12Timbers. When I look at them they make me smile. The orange wooden leaf is the perfect piece to bring everything together. This gets me so excited for Fall decorating. Now to finish the rest of the living room.
🍂
12 Timbers is so kind to give me a discount code. It’s good until Saturday at midnight. The code is PBANDP15.
🍂
Have the most beautiful day!

Look at this friends! It’s my first Fall vignett Look at this friends! It’s my first Fall vignette. Notice anything that seems a tad early? It’s my first pumpkin from my garden. Can you believe it? They started to grow early this season so it’s time to start picking. Unfortunately the massive one I showed you a couple weeks ago didn’t make it. It collapsed in the middle. That makes me sad, but at least I have more pumpkins growing.
🎃
I really had fun bringing out some Fall decor. Fall is not my favorite season, as I love Spring and Summer, but Fall is my favorite to decorate for.

Hello Tuesday! One of my favorite summer drinks is Hello Tuesday! One of my favorite summer drinks is a nice cold glass of lemonade. I like it a tad sour over sweet. It gives you the zippys in your mouth. I do love a good homemade lemonade, but once in awhile I like to cheat and just get my favorite store brand and add some freshly cut lemons and a few sprigs of mint. It then looks homemade when it’s not.
🍋
This is my outdoor dining area. I put the tablecloth over the table and have kept it like that all summer. I love my table, but being black, it’s extremely hot when you touch it. Plus it has water spots from last year which is annoying. Not sure how to get rid of them? 
🍋
What is your favorite summer drink? Have a wonderful day!
