Insert Jalapenos - How to bring their sharpness into the glass
Jalapenos bring a piece of Mexico to our home. But not only fajitas benefit from these fiery chilies. Even hamburgers and salads can be given a touch of sharpness by them. If they are not fresh on the bush, they are waiting for their appearance.
Suitable jalapeno pods
The Jalapenos will spend some time in the glass, for this long shelf life, they have to hop freshly into it. Choose only the best pods.
Preparing glasses for their long service
Even in clean glasses can hide germs that are not visible to the naked eye. Therefore, all jars intended for Jalapenos should be sterilized. This happens because they are cooked for about 15 minutes. However, the lids should not cook. They are put in a pot and doused with boiling water. They stay in it for about 5 minutes.
Whole pods or fine rings?
The chilies must be washed and dried well before loading. Clean Jalapenos can be easily inserted along with the stems. These will then be removed until further use. But it is also possible to remove the stems before inserting. If required by the recipe, the pulp can not be cut into any pieces, such as slices about 5 mm wide.
Sharp, sharper, the sharpest!
The pungency of the pods hides in the white partitions inside the fruits and in the seeds attached to them. When a part of the seeds and the partitions are removed from the fruit with a sharp knife, this takes the Jalapenos part of their fire. After all, not everyone can stand the burning sensation on the palate.
Even if jalapenos are mixed with other types of chili when they are put in, the overall sharpness changes. Together with mild varieties they become more bearable.
Enriching flavors
Jalapenos bring a lot of own sharpness, for other flavors must provide more ingredients. The broth in the glass may be sour but also sweet. In addition, depending on the recipe different flavors that are well tolerated with the Jalapenos. For example, garlic, mustard or peppercorns, turmeric and intensive herbs.
Tips
You can also divide the total amount of Jalapenos on many small glasses. With the contents of some glasses, you can experiment by adding your favorite spices or herbs.
