Pickled Jalapenos

So as you all know, I LOVE this website http://foodgawker.com/

I go there about 500 times a day! It’s great for idea’s for cooking dinner and finding cupcake recipes and food pictures. It’s the NEXT best thing to The Pioneer Woman!

So one day hard at work, I was on Food Gawker looking for recipes and I came across this Recipe

Thought it looked easy and I always have canning jars from making salsa. So I Had to make these!

Remove from water and allow to cool slightly on counter. When they have cooled enough to be manageable, slice about a cm thick.

Bring vinegar to a boil and pour enough over slices to cover.
Allow to cool on the counter for a couple of hours. As the jalapeños slices settle the vinegar may need to be topped up in order to keep them covered.
