Ingredients

3 pounds peppers, cut in ½ inch pieces
boiling water
2 cups sugar
2 cups white vinegar
2 cups water
8 cloves garlic
4 teaspoons salad oil (I use Crisco
2 teaspoons salt

Preparation

1
1) Pack peppers in clean hot jars, cover with boiling water and let stand.
2
(use (4) 16 oz. canning jars)
3
2. Combine sugar, vinegar and 2 cups water in a pan, heat to boiling and then simmer for 5 minutes.

3. Drain water from peppers in jars and add 2 cloves of garlic, 1 tsp. salad oil and 1/2 tsp. salt to each jar.
5
4. Pour boiling vinegar mixture over peppers to 1/8 inch of top. Seal and process 5 minutes in boiling water bath.
6
Just a note - these peppers stay crisp and crunching in the jar and are great in salads made in the winter. If not used in one year they do have a tendency to get a little limp, but still taste good.

These are terrific in sandwich wraps. I always run out by Christmas, no matter how many jars I manage to put away. *loves*
