| I tried a recipe on Pepper Joe's Hot Sauce web page this week. My son in law loves it. I will soon have loads more peppers so thought I would can more of it for him. I checked my Ball Blue Book and do not see a recipe similar enough to it to feel confident, but with the amount of vinegar in it, I feel like I should be able to process it. What do you think? How long would I process? Hot Water Bath? Pressure? I want to be safe. Here is a link to the recipe. It's the Jalapeno Sauce one. |

| You can. I do when i make a large batch that is too large to store in the fridge. But I use a very different recipe too. Most of the tested and approved pickled pepper sauce recipes call for 10-15 min. processing in a BWB for 1/2 pints or pints. The problem with that recipe is that it is pureed so its density is much higher than the density of the approved recipes - note how they call for much more vinegar too. So it would take a longer processing time and there is no assurance of safety with canning this particular recipe. You can freeze it with no concerns. There is a recipe almost identical to this one in The Joy of Pickling but it too calls for 1 cup of vinegar (5%) for 12 medium sized peppers and still only allows for fridge storage, not canning.

| Okay. Thanks, Dave. I will just freeze it. |

| - 12 jalapeno peppers - 8 tablespoons red wine vinegar - 1 whole lime - 1 tablespoon sugar -1/2 tbs. salt -1/2 tbs. onion powder -1/2 tbs. garlic powder Cut hot pepper in half and remove seeds. Drop in boiling water for 30 seconds to blanche. Squeeze juice from lime and combine hot peppers with all other ingredients in blender and chop. Then put on high speed to blend all ingredients together. Store in an old hot pepper sauce bottle or ketsup bottle and store in fridge. It's simple to make and 100% natural. |

| Seysonn, I'm concerned you are going to confuse some newer to canning. Would you consider at least making it clear you are posting your own unscientific opinion when adding to the help already given here? This forum has long been one place people could come with their canning questions and know they will be given tested approved recipes and methods. There are hundreds of places online for the grandmothers types recipes, others put together with guesswork and luck, but this has never been one of them. |

| morz8 ...processing pepper in STRAIGHT VINEGAR , in BWB is safe according to the scientific standards BECAUSE IT IS HIGHLY ACIDIC. Unless you come up with a reason as to WHY it is not, other than blindly referring only to the TESTED recipes. So you are blindly rejecting every other possibility that has not been tested(in exact sense) regardless of the scientific principles behind it. Then I also mentioned "..I think ..." , that means , in part what I said was my opinion based on the reasoning I presented. Then, it is up to the individual to decide what to. We are creating mandates here. |

| Sid ... looks good. I made something similar couple of weeks ago with yellow manzano and yellow bell beppers, with straight cider vinegar(5% acidity). With a dash of salt and some sugar (to hide to sour taste of vinegar) |
