Dear William,

Here is the recipe which I found :

Chiles Jalapenos En Escabeche
1 pound jalapeno peppers
salt
water
3 cups vinegar
2 whole cloves
1/4 tsp oregano
1 small cinnamon stick
1/4 tsp ginger
1/2 cup oil
1 medium onion
8 ounces carrots, sliced
1 head garlic cloves, separated and peeled
4 bay leaves

  Wash chiles and cut stems so they are no longer than 1/4 inch. Cut a slit 
in each chile and place in bring made by dissolving 2 tbs salt in 3 cups 
water. Let chiles stand in brine for 4 or 5 days and change brine two or 
three times a day. On final day, drain chiles and rinse. Combine vinegar, 
cloves, oregano, thyme, cinnamon stick and vinegar and boil until even in 
color, about 10 minutes. Heat oil, add onions, carrots, garlic cloves and 
bay leaves and cook until onion and carrots are tender. In a hot, 
sterilized 1-quart jar, make layers of onion mixture and chiles until jar 
is filled, starting and ending with onion mixture. Add boiling vinegar to 
cover and seal. Let stand in a cool place at least 2 weeks before using to 
let flavors blend.
