Recipe: Hot Pickled Okra

Thanks to this recipe and a couple of others, we are finally making our way through the hot pepper pods I grew and dried about five years ago!

This recipe is easily made smaller if you don't have six pounds of okra. It's so easy, you can do the math in your head!

HOT PICKLED OKRA

Makes 10 pints

6 lbs young okra, washed
1 ½ quarts white vinegar
1 ½ quarts water
½ C salt (canning or pickling preferred)
10-20 hot pepper pods
10 garlic cloves, halved

Boil white vinegar, water, and salt for 10 minutes. Pack okra into hot pint jars with 1 pepper pod and 1 clove garlic in each jar. Pour boiling liquid over okra, seal jars, and process 10 minutes in a boiling water bath.
