pickle every once in a while. - After a day, it is ready to eat. Store in the refrigerator after
that.

Does the jar have to be sterilized first?
Also, how long will these keep in the refrigerator?
Thank You!

Hi Chuck,
We don’t ever sterilize the jar, but I guess it wouldn’t be a bad idea to do so. We wash the jar and make sure it is well dried before using it for any pickle. The jalapenos keep for about 2-3 weeks in the fridge.
Tip: Use a blow dryer to blow hot air into a bottle to make sure it has dried well.

Hi Anuja & Hetal,
I tried this pickled Jalapeños recipe 3 days ago & I must say its simply outstanding! Its so irresistible that I feel like pooping one in my mouth whenever I open the refrigerator and see the jar.
I had used them on pizza yesterday & it was great. I can’t wait to try them on sandwiches and other dishes. It’s indeed much better than the one you get here in stores. Hats off to the Desi style pickled jalapeños!

Hi Karunya,
The vinegar helps to preserve the peppers for a longer time. It tastes really good in this recipe.

Hi Anuja and Hetal,
I like this recipe and want to try it. But the problem is I don’t have jalapenos. So, can I try this recipe with green chili peppers instead? Thanks.

You can use any green chilli that you like…just try and use something that is fleshy/meaty. The other reason we use jalapenos is beacuse they are less spicy.
