Ingredients
  

  • 8-10 peppers
  • 1-2 cups vinegar

Instructions
 

  • Wash and pat dry the peppers. Remove all traces of moisture from the surface.
  • Trim the heads off the peppers and slit them if you want to.
  • Add them to a glass bottle or jar with a narrow head, and top them off with a boiling hot vinegar.
  • Let this cool down completely, and once it is at room temperature, top the bottle with the lid and refrigerate.

Notes

  • Experiment with a mix of different peppers like Scotch Bonnet, Poblano, Chipotle, Habanero, Jalapenos and Cayenne peppers- they all work wonderfully in this recipe.
  • If you don't have enough vinegar to submerge the peppers, prepare a 1:1 mixture of vinegar and water with a teaspoon of salt added in, bring it to a boil, and use this to cover the peppers.
  • You can also add freshly sliced red onions or sliced garlic to amp up the flavor of this pepper infused vinegar.
