Slice peppers to make 4 - 5 cups (1 L)( I used mostly green and red
jalapenos, some orange habs and a few red thai)
Onions to make 2 -3 cups (6 - 700 ml)
sprinkle liberally with salt (1/2 cup)
Let sit for 2 - 3 hours
Make brine
2 cups vinegar (500 ml)
2 cups sugar (500 g)
pickling spices as you like (celery seed, mustard seed, etc.)
bring to boil, simmer for 20 minutes
Drain liquid off peppers and onions, do not rinse off the salt
Put in jar and pour brine over everything
Cover, refriugerate and let sit for about a week before serving.
Keep in refrigerator
Enjoy -- My son that doesn't like cucumber pickles likes these. (Said the
habs were a bit much).
