Description

These quick-pickled garlic peppers offer a vibrant burst of flavor with every bite. The combination of sweet red and yellow bell peppers provides a colorful contrast, while the sharp acidity of white wine vinegar balances the sweetness perfectly. Infused with aromatic garlic cloves and fresh herbs, these peppers deliver a pleasant crunch and a subtle tang that elevates any meal. Ideal for adding zesty crunch to sandwiches, salads, charcuterie boards, or grain bowls, this recipe is a versatile pantry staple. The natural sweetness of the peppers shines through, making them a delicious accompaniment to rich or savory dishes. Simple to prepare and ready in just a few days, these pickles are a rewarding project for home cooks looking to add homemade flair to their table.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Wash and dry the red and yellow bell peppers thoroughly.
  2. Remove the stems, seeds, and white membranes from the peppers.
  3. Slice the red and yellow peppers into 3/4-inch-wide strips.
  4. Trim the ends of the onions and halve them vertically if using onions instead of additional peppers.
  5. Peel the garlic cloves.
  6. Arrange the pepper strips, onion halves, garlic cloves, and fresh herbs (thyme, oregano, or bay leaves) attractively in 2 sterilized pint jars.
  7. In a small saucepan, combine the white-wine vinegar, salt, and 1 cup of water.
  8. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring until the salt is completely dissolved.
  9. Pour the hot brine mixture over the peppers in the jars, ensuring they are fully submerged.
  10. Leave about 1/2 inch of headspace at the top of each jar.
  11. Seal the jars tightly with their lids.
  12. Let the jars cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 5 to 6 days before eating.
