A Peck of Pickled Peppers

Tonight I'm going to try and pickle peppers. Our serrano plant has gone nearly as mad as the zucchinis. For the last year or so I've been making good old dill pickles with this amazing recipe. Or something rather like it depending on my current supplies of the various ingredients.

There are certain things that everybody has an opinion about, and that they'll make you feel very wrong for doing differently. For example, raising kittens. I see lots of websites with things like - never, EVER, let the kitten have human food!!! If you let the kitten have ANY human food EVER, it will DIE!!!!!

I read this while watching Cat-erine the Great sneak licks of oil out of my cooling frying pan.

Ugh.

Pickling seems to be the same way. I do it by boiling old jars from grocery store products, stuffing in the veggies, pouring boiling brine over, and tightening the lid. So far, no problems whatsoever. To look at various pickling instructions you'd think you need an industrial kitchen for it. Or else you'd DIE!!!!!
