Pickling Peppers: No Water Bath

So here is 1 way to pickle peppers without having to use a canner or pressure canner. You do have to store them in the fridge after you are done and will last about 4 months from what I have read/seen.

So this way is good for smaller amounts of canning that you will eat soon anyways.

Here are the links to the Alton Brown recipe from Good Eats. Check it out for detailed quantities on his recipe ingredients.

I know your heart is in the right place and I commend your efforts to make a one man, one handed video but PLEASE look at your own videos and learn from your mistakes. Get organized. Slow down your camcorder movements. They're disjointed and sorta herkyjerky. After watching the first few minutes of your video, the movements become quite distracting. I have no criticisms of your pickling techniques, and I am interested in how you preserve food, but your video style gives me vertigo. Good luck

@wallydat1 Yeah I've gotten this before :). Like most on youtube I'm not shooting for production value. It is how I roll and anyone who wants to join in and can take it is great. So if vertigo is what you get then I might not be your guy.

very nice, however you store your finished product with the band removed.

@Trashfished Does the world explode if I leave them on??

[wallydat1]

Hokay,  constructive criticism only, again, good luck. Let's see now,...where did I put those sea sick pills?

[TempestStrife]

@14dollarz In the event of a can going bad, a tell tale sign is the top popping off, since it will start to off gas... Though with pickles, they initially ferment, sooo...

[Trashfished]

Also take the bands off and clean and dry them and they won't rust. But hey theres a million knowitalls out there!LOL! Im doing your recipe now and I touched my eye and it BURNS!!

[Trashfished]

@14dollarz No ,However When the jar is in the sealing process liquid and tiny bits of solids leach out into the threads of the band. Band should be removed when sealed and top and side of jar should be rinsed to prevent botulism from forming.
