Turmeric Pickled Bell Peppers

Ingredients

  • Large young bell peppers (seeds and stem left on)
  • Salt
  • Water
  • Vinegar
  • Turmeric

Method

  1. 1 Cut a slit in one side of each pepper between the large veins, leaving seeds and stem intact. Do not cut through the veins.
  2. 2 Place peppers in a container. Pour boiling salt water over them, ensuring the liquid enters through the slit. Keep tightly covered.
  3. 3 Change the salt water daily for three weeks. Keep peppers tightly sealed during this period.
  4. 4 Once peppers turn a good green, transfer them to pots. Cover with cold vinegar and a little turmeric.
