Wash peppers
Make opening in peppers so vinegar can get inside. (scissors work fine)
Stuff peppers in a bottle or jar or bottle.
add approx 1 heaping teaspoon pickling salt per pint.
Boil 5% apple cider vinegar and pour over peppers. Close tightly but does not need to be sealed as in canning does.
Let me add use proper pepper procedure, gloves eye protection and vent.
The jars needed wiped down after filling....
This is a silly question, but what is 5% vinegar - is that a mix of water with 5% vinegar, or a particular vinegar with a strength of 5%?
