I have been experimenting with whole pickled jalapenos.
The first recipe I tried didn't seem to have enough liquid so I decided to double the recipe as follows. Then I thought (too late), maybe you don't double the salt and sugar amounts. Anyway, I waited over a week and tried one. It was quite good anyway. It was not too spicy for me at all. When I de-seeded and cut one up into small pieces, I put it in an egg salad and made a bunch of sandwiches, it was really good! It had a kick without the burn is how I would describe it.
Here is my doubled recipe:
2 c water (I used bottled water)
2 c white vinegar
4 tbs salt
4 tbs white sugar
2 cloves of garlic smashed
5 whole jalapenos
heat the water, vinegar, sugar, salt, garlic to a boil
add the whole jalapenos and remove from the heat. Let it sit 15 mins. Add the jalapenos to a jar with the brine and garlic. Line the cover with parchment paper when cooled. Store in refrigerator. It will be usable by the next day or so.
Stay tuned for Part 3 tomorrow, where I will discuss a variation of this recipe.

I do love chillis. Jalapenos too. Can't wait to try your recipe.
Tasty sandwiches.
God bless.
I like the idea of adding pickled jalapenos in the egg salad.
They look so nice! I am sure the longer you wait to try them the more spicy they will be! I do find most jalapenos at our grocery are hybrids and aren't really HOT, but I always leave the seeds in since this does help with the HEAT. Thanks so much for the recipe!🌶️
I had a jalapeno the other day that had kick and burn. I like kick, not burn. These sound like they are perfect pickles.
Nice dishes
Great recipe and if it's not so spicy all the better! The sandwich is delicious!
I love your experimental flare in the kitchen. You come up with some really tasty and interesting recipes. We love egg salad sanwiches. Also add egg to my Tuna salad recipe.
That sounds good. I like jalapenos but usually I stuff them with cream cheese and wrap them in bacon. lol
I love egg salad, but no spicy peppers for me!
Blessings, Christine!
Egg salad with spicy jalapenos would be a real treat to me, thanks Christine!
Hubby and I use to do pickled peppers.
Coffee is on and stay safe
Oops our internet went down briefly, so not sure if my first comment came through!
But I'm going to look at Part 3 now!
All the best Jan
Jalapenos without the burn? I didn't think that was possible.
I have an aversion to hot food. Your idea of not hot and mine may be different. the sandwich looks good, though.
love pickles, especially less sugar ones....
How interesting that they aren't too spicy!
