Preparation

1. Prepare the Jalapeños

Wash the jalapeño peppers under cold running water. Slice them into rings or halves, depending on your preference, and remove the seeds if you want a milder flavor.

Brine Preparation

2. Make the Brine

In a medium saucepan, combine water, white vinegar, sugar, salt, garlic cloves, black peppercorns, cumin seeds, and bay leaf. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar and salt dissolve.

Pickling

3. Combine and Store

Once the brine is boiling, remove it from the heat and let it cool for about 10 minutes. Place the sliced jalapeños in a clean, sterilized jar. Pour the warm brine over the jalapeños, ensuring they are fully submerged. Seal the jar tightly.

4. Refrigerate

Let the jar cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 24 hours before using for best flavor. The pickled jalapeños can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 months.
