Easy and Simple Pickled Jalapeno Recipe.

The most basic of these is simply boiling the chilies in vinegar, let it cool, and store. But there are more ways on how to do it that will also produce different tastes. Below are some tips on how to make better pickled jalapeno recipe:

• Cut jalapenos for less spice. For some, jalapenos are just perfectly spicy. But for some, they are overly spicy. So if you want to reduce the hotness of the chili, you have to remove the seeds. And to do so, you need to cut each jalapeno in half and remove the seeds. You may still cut the jalapeno into more strips if desired.

• Poke jalapenos to preserve the spice. To keep the seeds in the jalapenos, you have to preserve them whole. But the problem is, the pickle liquid cannot easily penetrate the chilies if you do that. Poking them will solve the problem. However, use a clean needle or pin when doing so. This will reduce burning of hands, which is usually felt after handling chilies.

• Measure how much vinegar to use. It’s quite difficult to estimate how much vinegar is needed to cover all the jalapenos. There is a trick, though. Put in all the jalapenos in the jar and then cover them with water. Now, transfer the water in the measuring cup. That same amount of water should be used for this  jalapeno recipe.
