Pickled Peppers



Jeff loves sweet peppers on his sandwiches. Since our pepper plant produced so well I decided that I would can a few for him to enjoy later. It was a nice idea. The first challenge was getting the skin off the peppers. I blistered the peppers like the directions said and then the skin was just supposed to come off. It didn't work that easily. There were tears when Jeff came into the kitchen to see what was going on and I informed him I was doing it for him. He told me I could quit but by then I was determined. So I ended up with two tiny jars of pickled peppers. I hope they are edible, if not they are kind of pretty maybe I'll just set them on a shelf to look at. From now on I will leave pickled peppers to Peter Piper!
