Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a medium saucepan, combine water, vinegar, sugar, and salt. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. (Approximately 5 minutes)

02

Step

Add the halved bell peppers to the boiling brine. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer gently until the peppers are tender-crisp, about 8 to 10 minutes.

03

Step

Carefully transfer the peppers and pickling liquid to clean glass jars, leaving about 1/2 inch of headspace.

04

Step

Seal the jars with lids and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the peppers to fully pickle.

For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a sliced jalapeño to the pickling brine.
Feel free to experiment with different colored bell peppers, such as yellow or orange, for a visually appealing mix.
These pickled peppers will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Ensure the jars and lids are clean and properly sealed before refrigerating to maintain freshness.

    I used apple cider vinegar instead of white vinegar and the flavor was amazing!

  • Laurel Wolf

    I found that 10 minutes was too long, next time I'll try 6-8 minutes for a crisper pepper.

  • Miguel Beier

    Great recipe! Quick, easy, and delicious.

  • Arnold Gottlieb

    I made these last week and they were a hit! I added a clove of garlic to the brine for extra flavor.

    Adding a teaspoon of mustard seed really kicks up the flavor.

    These are so much better than store-bought pickled peppers. Thanks for the recipe!

    Super easy to follow recipe. My peppers turned out perfectly tangy and crisp.

  • Eliezer Gutkowski

    Next time I'll try adding some sliced onions for a bit more complexity.
