Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. So how many pickled peppers did Peter Piper pick? Yes. I went there. I’m so cliche. What are you going to do to about it? It’s really just because I don’t know what else to say. I had a long day, and we’re all suffering from a cold. It’s no fun.
I made these pickled sweet peppers for our burger night last week, and they turned out awesome. They were so easy to make, and so yummy on our burgers. I will save those details for when I actually post the recipe for them, but I will say that they were the perfect tangy zip to match the smoky chipotle in our burgers. Hmmm. Can you guess what kind of burgers they were?
These pickled peppers would be a really unique homemade gift for the holidays too. Of course, they will need to be eaten within a week or two, and kept in the fridge, since they’re not fully pickled. But, they are so pretty in their jars. How could anyone not be happy with pretty pickled peppers?
They would also be a really beautiful addition to a relish tray.
