    We have grown Lombardo chillies for the first time this year, and so are now amassing a collection of fairly large green chillies, that are supposed to be for pickling. Next step - I need to find a pickling recipe! Has anyone done this, and have a recipe they can recommend?

    I found this one, but I have never tried it:


    Ingredients
    Serves: 40

    • 500g (1 1/4 lb) long yellow chillies, cut into thick slices
    • 500g (1 1/4 lb) green or red chillies, cut into thick slices
    • 1.4L (2 3/8 pints) vinegar
    • 450ml (16 fl oz) water
    • 3 cloves garlic, crushed
    • 1 onion, chopped



    Method
    Prep:15min › Cook:15min › Ready in:30min

    1. Place the chillies into a large pot. Add the vinegar, water, garlic and onion. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to medium low and simmer for 5 minutes.
    2. Ladle peppers into sterilised jars, and fill to the top with the liquid, leaving a .5cm (1/4 in) headspace. Tap jars on your work surface to remove air bubbles. Place two-piece lids on the jars.
    3. Place jars in the rack of a large, canning pot, and fill with enough water to cover the jars completely. Bring to the boil, and boil for 10 to 15 minutes. Refrigerate jars after opening.
