Canning Hot Banana Peppers


This is a recipe given to me by some neighbors 30 years ago an i still make it it is simple an good an always a hit at picnics

Steps


Use gloves when handling hot peppers.
Sterilize four quart jars , lids and rings in boiling water.
Taking one jar at a time , place as many peppers as you can into the jar.
Mix the vinegar , salt and water together until dissolved in a sauce pan.
Bring just up to a boil but do not boil and pour over peppers.
Run a spatula or butter knife around the edges of the jars and press peppers to get all the air bubbles out.
Wipe the rims of the jars with a clean cloth , place lids and screw bands on finger.
Place in boiling water bath five minutes.
After 5 minutes take out and set jars on a cloth-protected counter to cool.
The ones that do not snap after the jars are cooled , store in fridge as you cannot put in water bather the second time.
