Pickled Jalapeños
If you’ve ever been to an authentic Mexican restaurant, chances are you’ve had a pickled jalapeño once or twice. They have a delicious sweet, spicy, and sour flavor that adds to many different dishes. Originally I thought these spicy snacks were only meant for Mexican cuisine, but I’ve started using them on my pizzas, in my salads and even in soups. I’ve also started noticing that most cuisines have their own version of a pickled pepper. One thing is for sure, wherever I find a pickled jalapeño, I am sure to eat it; I’m obsessed with these things.
Picking the Right Pickling Jars
Even though quick pickling doesn’t require the same kind of jars are serious canning does, everyone has preferences and favorites when it comes to reusable jars. I am a huge fan of mason jars to the point that we use them as water glasses on occasion in my home.
