Sweet. I've tried pickling my own peppers but I can't seem to keep the crunch I like. If I get them pickled, they're to soft. If they're still crunchy, they taste like raw peppers.

My family does bread and butter jalapeņos. My thing is making dill pickles (i mix in cucumbers, baby squash, and okra) with some heat to them.

Lady Pam, doesn't just leaving the garlic out work? And why would you want pickles without garlic for anyway?
