So yesterday I went to the basement and grabbed one of my last quart jars. This one was dill and jalepeno. OMG!! They've got to be the best pickles I've ever had!!!!
I think I used two jalepeno's, split with seeds left in. Not hot at all, just a bit of spice. They're awesome!! K |

That's interesting, are they still canned or are they fermented pickles? I'll have to read up about using grape leaves, I have a pinot noir vine that's very vigorous this year. |

been wanting to try this since I saw it last year. got about 10lbs of pickling cucumbers and its going to happen tonight.

I missed or forgot the part of placing the jars in a hot water bath. I pulled them from the dish washer and filled them up one didn't seal but for safe measure their all in the fridge.

I would, because if they didn't seal on their own there may be a problem down the line. However treating them as "refrigerator pickles" will be fine. Just a FYI for the newbies: In general a basket of small pickles will fill 12 one quart jars. Having done this recipe several times now, the op's recipe will do 10. Add 1 cup vinegar, 3 cups water and 1/3 cup pickling salt (1 quart total) to do 2 additional one quart jars. YMMV. Between chores, harvesting, canning and going to our camp, it will be some time before I see the shooting club range again. But it's worth it. |

Bump so I can find it easier.

OK Just another post to thank Bozeman. Holy Shit are these pickles amazing. Thank you for this recipe
|
|
|
if someone doesnt have fresh dill available how much of the dried dill should one use per jar?
|
|
|
Just put back 7 quarts based on this recipe. We put some peppers in for heat though.
Its gonna be a long 3 weeks. |

Did you "poke" everything down to remove air bubbles after pouring the hot brine into the jars? Also, everything must be hot enough and the correct air space left ( I leave 1/2") to contract enough to seal properly. |

My jalapeño and cubanelle plants are producing more than I can eat fresh. I picked everything of decent size and used this recipe, minus dill and red pepper, to can them. I cut the cubanelles into rings. I cut the jalapeños in half. The stem and most of the inner flesh and seeds were removed from both. I ended up with 11 quart jars. All sealed. I like pickled peppers on sandwiches. Look forward to tasting these in 3 weeks.

The taste is very good. I was impressed enough that I did another 10 quarts about 2 weeks ago, packed much more densely. If I can keep my 8 pepper plants going for a bit longer, I should be able to harvest enough for 7 or 8 more quarts. The production of my jalapeños and Cubanelles is crazy. ETA I have had 0 jars fail to seal. |

If anyone likes pickled green tomatoes this recipes works out pretty sweet for that also. I have canned about 8 quarts so far they taste great.

I don't have access to fresh dill.
Dill weed or dill seed? How much per pint? |
