Description

These Bread and Butter Jalapeño Pickles are the perfect blend of sweet and spicy. Quick to make and incredibly versatile, they add bold flavor to sandwiches, tacos, cheese boards, and more.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups sliced fresh jalapeños
  • ½ cup thinly sliced onions
  • ¾ cup white vinegar
  • ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon celery seed
  • ½ teaspoon mustard seeds
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Place the sliced jalapeños and onions in a clean, heat-proof glass jar.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine white vinegar, apple cider vinegar, sugar, celery seed, mustard seeds, and salt. Stir to combine.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring until the sugar and salt dissolve (about 3–4 minutes).
  4. Carefully pour the hot brine over the jalapeños and onions in the jar, ensuring they are fully submerged.
  5. Let the jar sit uncovered at room temperature for 1 hour.
  6. Seal the jar with a lid and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, before serving.

Notes

  • Wear gloves when handling jalapeños to avoid skin irritation.
  • Remove seeds for a milder pickle or leave them in for extra heat.
  • Use a mix of white and apple cider vinegar for a deeper flavor.
