Pickled Peppers
Origin: Madrid, Spain
Source: Anonymous, 1920
Ingredients
- pimientos morrones (sweet bell peppers)
- 1 part water
- 1 part vinegar
Instructions
- Select sweet bell peppers (pimientos morrones). Rub them well with a cloth. Place them in a wide-mouthed jar. Pour equal parts water and vinegar over them, ensuring they are completely covered. (The same method applies to hot peppers, small pickles, and purple carrots.)
- Seal the jar with a glass lid and ground-glass stopper, keeping it hermetically closed at all times. After forty or more days, the peppers can be eaten directly from the jar, without draining.
