We threw a few seeds in plug trays this spring on a whim and were rewarded by a massive amount of these buggers. My first attempt at quick pickling suffered from not piercing the peppers and way too much sugar. Thanks for a simple guide to help get it right!
I enjoyed your video and I'm getting ready to harvest my pepperoncini peppers today and start canning them. I live in southern Brazil and peperoncini seeds or the pepper alone are impossible to find here .So I had to ordered mine from eBay from Charlotte Tolleson in Toccoa Georgia I bought three packs of 25 seeds each of organically-grown golden Greek pepperoncini pepper seeds 3 packs cost $7.80 plus shipping of $2,95 total $10.75. It was very cheap I have about 70 to 75 plants to harvest and there's about 20 to 30 peperoncini per plant. I'm going to be doing a lot of canning. It was well worth it
Good for you! Yes you will be doing a LOT of canning. Make sure to use Calcium Chloride (Pickle Crisp) as they will get very soft/slimey if you can them without it. Course you can refrigerate pickle a few in the meantime if you don't ave any calcium chloride on hand.
Thank you this is my first year growing anything and I've got 7 pepper and seeing you plants that are going well and I was trying to see when it's time to pick them and you answered all of my questions and gave me a recipe thank you so much I subscribed as well
I tried all kinds of different italian brands of peperoncini until i stumbled upon this turkish brand named omega.. They're the absolute best iv ever had!!
With six you will have a lot of peppers! I planted 2 this year and each plant is producing about a quart of peppers a week. Next year I may just plant one.
I grew these for the first time this year and have made them with this recipe and it's simple and delish! Taste like the store bought only fresher. Got mine at Hoss tools
New sub..I found pepperoncini at our local nursery but don't ever recall ever seeing them at HD or Lowes. I planted one for the first time this year and it's exploding with them. I didn't know how big they should be to pick and now I see some are too big so my husband will be eating those fresh. Thanks to your video I can just let a few stay until they turn brown to collect the seeds and will be doing for sure. Are they like the bush beans where the more you pick they more grow? My take away is pick between 1.5 to 2", for seeds don't pick until they turn brown, after piercing at both ends cram the jars full and push out the air and cram some more in. Growing is enough for me at this point so maybe next year I'll do refridge canning. I don't know if these have pest problems but since I saw some ants I sprinkled cinnamon on top of the soil. They'll vacate quickly and move on because they hate the smell of it. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
My one pepperoncini plant has grown a bunch of peppers but they are more shriveled looking than most I've seen. I am going to pickle them with a couple jalapenos I grew. Have you mixed other peppers or garlic when you are pickling pepperoncinis? You video was so helpful. Do you have a brine recipe posted?
well damn came here to see if i wanted to grow this or another cayanne in my last indoor spot and ended up learning a recipe for pickling that i can actually use THANK YOU
For seeds, simply order an Italian Pizza and ask for the pepper topping...this way you can place them in a jar above your refrigerator to dry, and there you have seeds. Yummy Yummy. Kitchen Hacks, you never go wrong.
@@anonz975 , thanks. However the pepper which were on the pizza were fresh, yellow in color but, not baked. I suppose they just plopped them on top. lol
I tried canning banana peppers many years ago, but I wasn't happy with the results. I'll try ordering actual pepperoncini pepper seeds next time. I also love the tip of slicing them too!
I grew up with these, we always put them on a sandwich and they were in many dishes. I think from Asia to the Middle East to Greece and Italy they are just a staple. I can see why, what wonderful flavor. Sometimes I like a pita sandwich with them and some mustard and lettuce, it's just a wonderful pepper. I bought a big jar at Big Lots and they were so hot I couldn't eat them. I boiled them, soaked them in sugar, still too dang hot--if anyone has a suggestion let me know.
I love the store pickled ones and have grown them before and again this year to can, but the majority of them have zero heat and I like the heat, did yours have heat? I just read to not water them regularly and use sulfur to get the heat?
I'm moving into a new 1 bedroom soon. This is the first thing I want to plant!!! Any suggestions on what to plant them in and some care instructions. Thanks so much!!!
They need lots of sun, if growing in a container use a 3 gal pot. Start the seedlings 2 months before they can go outside, I like the liquid miracle grow fertilizer (they grow really well with that), just use very weak 1/3rd strength fertilizer with seedlings. Don't let the pots get too dry.
I am not responsible for any cases of food poisoning however I store mine for a couple of months and they are fine. If you want to go beyond that then be safe and water bath can (using an official canning recipe without sugar, and be sure to use pickle crisp).
Thank you for sharing. ❤ I have red peppers right now are they good for Pickling? I also have Green chiles. I have alot but don't know what to do with them all. Any ideas?
Thank you for posting, I love these peppers...they're the only ones I like to eat by themselves!! How can I store these on the shelf if I have too many to pickle at once? Can I put them in a solution to store for months on the shelf, then pickle when about ready to eat?
The vinegar/water solution preserves them, if you want to store them for a long time or at room temperature then waterbath can them. Look up a good "sugar free" waterbath canning recipe for that and be sure to use calcium chloride else they will become mushy/soft.
@@anonz975 that's excellent i grew the chishito type last year they produce really well too but they do lack the heat So the pepperoncini will be a good choice from what i have read they have just the right amount of heat very pleasant and not too hot
Why do mine look skinny like a cayenne still is what i wanna know. Do they fill out at some point?. Also I don't think you know how big an inch is. All of those peppers are 2.5-3 inches
I tried this before last year and it tasted nothing like store bought 😭 I wonder if the type of vinegar matters and the store bought always have an acid in them. What vinegar did you use by chance? I didn’t put sugar in either.
You may have a more sensitive pallet. Read the ingredients on a jar of store bought and add garlic or whatever as you see fit. I use regular white vinegar though you might like apple cider vinegar better.
This might be a funny question, but I just finished a jar of these bought from the store. Can I reused the leftover liquid to pickle them? Would I still have to boil the solution? Also,my peppers always stay small. Do you use any particular fertilizeR? thanks
Reusing leftover liquid is not a good idea, plus the hot water softens the peppers a bit. I suppose if you BOILED the leftover liquid it might be okay, but a jug of vinegar is only a couple of bucks. As far as fertilizer, I use 10-10-10 from the feed store ($9 for a 40 lb bag).
@@Ryin88 Maybe start with 75/25. If it tastes too strong or not strong enough you can dump out the brine and adjust. There are lots of brine recipes online just don't add sugar.
I just used the common distilled 5% white vinegar, but you can use any type you like the flavor of. You can also add spices such as garlic if you like, just no sugar as that makes them taste like bread and butter sweet pickles.
Can they not be left out of the refrigerator? The way my cayenne peppers come on I wouldn't have enough room in my refrigerator for all the jars and regular food too. I picked over 1600 cayennes in their first picking and probably 3000 on the second and they are still coming on. If Pepperoncinis come on like that, I'd have to have a fridge for just them, lol.
They get tough and sometimes a little bitter. You can pickle the bigger ones but the smaller ones are better. Usually you have to pick them every 2-3 days.
How can something so delicious be so simple!... I ask the ladies in my family for recipes and they always leave out there secrets..so no one can copy ..my grandmother had a red velvet cake recipe she took to the grave with her..no matter what we do no one gets her icing right..I believe there is alot of old Grandma voodoo in processes just like this...

What was the second seed vendor you recommended for seeds??? I have been robbing the peppers I buy in the store for seeds and then just let them dry out. Have not tried the new seeds yet but i will try in a couple of weeks or so.
Also saving seeds from grocery store produce is hit and miss, if it comes from outside the U.S. it is irradiated/sterile to prevent invasive insects, and things like peppers are rarely fully ripe when harvested.
@@anonz975 so I have to buy my seeds every year then or do the plants propogate themselves. I have like 10 - 11 seedlings I am getting ready to transfer. I am going to take part of my yard just to grow pepperoncinis cause I love to eat them. I usually buy the ones off Amazon but right now it is 30/2 and I am used to paying like 18/2. and these are big containers.

@@rcajun91405 Just let the fruit ripen fully and save seeds (preferably at the end of the season, as some plants top producing once they produce seeds). Only plants that are an issue are hybrids as their offspring may not be exactly like the parent, but few are hybrids and you can look up to see if a variety is.
You know I just got to this video from the pronunciation video about pepperoncini (it's pronounced how it's spelled, apparently). Then you go and pronounce it the incorrect way I was raised pronouncing it. And now I am so confused.
I just ruined a qt jar of peppers. I used a brine-fermenting method followed the instructions to a T I even bought weights to keep them submerged. The use of vegetable starter was optional so I didn't use any. 10 days later my husband had a bad tasting experience and they were thrown away. No more fermenting peppers for me.
Try this method, it is easy and it tastes just like store bought to me. If you are unsure start with a small jar. As long as you don't add anything strange to the brine (ie sugar) nothing can go wrong.
No matter how much you wash your hands, you should always use gloves because you are packing the jar with your natural bacteria and the peppers are then contaminated and will give you enteritis. Hygiene is very important when handling food.
Yeah I thought about that AFTER I made the video. I only prepare food for myself, plus I live with 5 large dogs and have a flock of chickens so natural resistance is the rule of thumb around here. Though I am fanatical about hand sanitizers when in public as I don't want "other people's germs" floating around. :)
I, along with several of my friends and family, tried your refrigerator peppers and to be honest, they are awful. Absolutely nothing like store bought. They did not lighten in color, are tough, and just taste like vinegar. Since I made them three months ago, they have been pickling more than long enough.
I have no idea what you could have done but as shown they lighten considerably in a few days if you use boiling hot brine and the correct type of pepper. They also aren't tough unless the peppers were too mature for pickling.
Oh and BTW you might want to read the ingredients on a jar of Mt. Olive pepperoncinis because that is what I did: Ingredients Imported Peppers, Water, Vinegar, Salt, Citric Acid, Calcium Chloride, 0.1% Sodium Benzoate (Preservative), Sodium Bisulfite (Preservative), and Yellow 5.

I would start a new jar. The initial heat of the brine plays a part.
Can they grow in a colder climate
Start them early indoors so they are good sized by the last frost and your warm season should be long enough for a nice harvest.
Never eat a pizza without pepperoncinis lol
Does this recipe work for banana and wax peppers?
Yes, banana peppers come out about the same as pepperoncini. Never had wax peppers but if they would taste good in a vinegar brine it would work.

What kind of vinegar did you use
I just used the common distilled 5% white vinegar, but you can use any type you like the flavor of. You can also add spices such as garlic if you like, just no sugar as that makes them taste like bread and butter sweet pickles.
I've only 4 plants and they are very prolific.

I picked over 1600 cayennes in their first picking and probably 3000 on the second and they are still coming on. If Pepperoncinis come on like that, I'd have to have a fridge for just them, lol.
my wife planted over 50 plants and now I have 6 buckets of peppers I dry some make a puree and end up pickling to many-does anyone need any
Why shouldn’t we pickle them if longer than 2 inches?
They get tough and sometimes a little bitter. You can pickle the bigger ones but the smaller ones are better. Usually you have to pick them every 2-3 days.
i'm guessing i can't grow them inside?
i actually like the immature peppers best less green and a softer texture
You can also get them from Migardener
White distilled vinegar?
That is what I used.
