How to make pickled chili peppers?
Before starting canning, make sure the peppers are in good physical condition. This prevents the appearance of stains and the proliferation of fungi. In addition, it is very important to sterilize the pot where the sauce will be, so that it will last longer. Use boiling water to sanitize the glass container.
Ingredients
You will need:
- 250g of chilli pepper;
- 5 cloves of garlic;
- 1 teaspoon of salt;
- 180 ml of olive oil;
- 1 tablespoon of vinegar.
Method of preparation
First, sterilize the glass jar where the peppers will be stored. Then clean the chilli peppers in boiling water along with the garlic cloves for about 2 minutes. Then, place them on a paper towel to dry. It is important that the peppers are very dry to avoid the appearance of fungus and stains.
Finally, alternately place the chili peppers and garlic cloves inside the glass container and then add the oil, salt and vinegar until they are all covered. Keep the pot closed and take to the fridge for 72 hours to intensify the flavor.
After this process, you will have a delicious canned chili pepper for those who can't do without spicy food at the table, and you can even sell it to increase your monthly income.
extra tips
To maintain the quality of your sauce, never leave the peppers out of the oil. If kept in well-closed jars and in the fridge, chilli peppers usually last up to 6 months.
Therefore, as the amount of oil is reduced due to consumption, always top up with more oil. Ideally, the peppers should always be covered for better conservation.
