Hot Pepper Vinegar Recipe
Hot Pepper Vinegar Recipe
This hot pepper vinegar would make a nice addition to a Mexican theme gift basket or for anyone who enjoys spicy foods. Decorate the filled bottle by typing a whole dried hot pepper with raffia, ribbon, or twine around the neck.
Ingredients:
4 fresh chilies, jalapeno or serrano
2 cups white wine vinegar
Heat vinegar in a non-aluminum saucepan until very hot, but DO NOT boil.
Chop chilies and put in sterilized jar.
Pour hot vinegar over chilies. Let cool completely and cover with plastic wrap; place in cool place for 2 weeks.
Strain and pour into clean bottle with non-metal lid. Add 2 fresh, whole peppers, if desired.
Options: Add your choice of herbs -- either dried or fresh.
