It’s time to crop vegetables. The popular vegetables of people who grow vegetables in the area are tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini
and peppers among other. My friend J gave us fresh jalapeno and serrano peppers this year. My intention
was to try to do something different than last time. I always have cans of peppers
in my pantry that I buy in the supermarket, so I thought why not trying to make pickled peppers. I studied a career related to the food industry. I don’t remember how it is done since
I was in the University, what I mean is that I don’t remember the amounts, temperatures and
times of the procedure, so I asked someone who knows about it. My college friend
R, who lives in another country now, has been preparing Mexican food where she
lives. It’s hard to find Mexican ingredients in that country. I contacted her through
Skype and she shared me the recipe. We had a good chat, even our husbands joined
the conversation! This sketch is the result of that preparation. The one on the
left is one of the three cans I made, and the two small ones are gifts from
my friend J. The product came out very good, tasty savory pickled jalapeno
peppers Mexican style. The look is not what
is supposed to be because I used ground cinnamon and ground clove instead of
whole spices therefore the liquid came out color brown and with some sediments. I . don’t . care. The adventure of home making my own pickled
jalapeno peppers was a joy. Cheers to my friends J and R who made it possible!
Those pickles look very tasty indeed!
