Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 to 6 medium jalapeño peppers
2 garlic cloves
1/2 cup white vinegar
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
1 bay leaf

Steps:

  • Wash a wide-mouth pint mason jar and and its lid in hot soapy water. Then rinse and let air dry.
  • Thinly slice the jalapeño peppers. Fill the jar with the slices.
  • Peel the garlic cloves, leaving them whole. In a small saucepan, combine the garlic, vinegar, water, sugar, kosher salt, peppercorns and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar and salt (this will take only a few minutes).
  • Once boiling, pour the brine into the jar (including the bay leaf). Tap the jar on the counter to release any air bubbles. Discard any remaining brine, or top off the jar with extra water if any peppers are exposed at the top.
  • Screw on the lid tightly and allow to cool to room temperature (about 1 hour). Eat immediately, or refrigerate until serving. Keeps up to 1 month refrigerated.

SUNNY'S ORANGE JALAPEñO PARTY RIBS

Categories     main-dish

Time 5h50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup orange marmalade
1/2 cup chopped white onion
1/4 cup brown sugar, light or dark
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 jalapeños, one seeded, both finely chopped
1 clove garlic, grated on a rasp
Zest of 1 orange (if using fresh orange juice)
Kosher salt and freshly ground coarse black pepper
1 cup orange juice (preferably fresh)
3 to 4 pounds baby back pork ribs, sliver skin removed
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 orange, sliced into wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • For the sauce: Add the marmalade, onions, brown sugar, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, jalapeños, garlic, orange zest, a pinch of salt and plenty of coarse ground black pepper to a medium pot on medium-high. Bring to a simmer and cook until slightly reduced and thickened. Remove from the heat and divide as follows: for the basting liquid, pour 1/4th of the sauce into a medium bowl and whisk in the orange juice. Pour the remaining sauce into a medium bowl to use as the glazing liquid.
  • For the ribs: Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Sprinkle the ribs generously on all sides with salt and pepper and place on a rimmed baking sheet, bone-side down. Brush lightly all over with the basting liquid. Pour all the remaining basting liquid into the bottom of the baking sheet and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Cook 3 to 5 hours, basting with the liquid every hour and re-covering tightly each time. After 3 hours, begin checking the ribs for doneness by gently pulling at the middle bone to see if it will release easily from the meat. The ribs are also done with about a 1/2-inch of the bone showing on the ends, or a pull at the middle bone feels like it will release the meat.
  • Once the ribs are cooked remove the aluminum foil and brush the ribs with the reserved sauce. Adjust the rack to the bottom of the oven, turn the broiler on high and cook the ribs until the glaze caramelizes, about 10 minutes.
  • Remove the ribs from the oven onto a cutting board, tent with aluminum foil and let rest for 10 minutes. Cut into 1- or 2-bone slices and serve with orange wedges.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Chiles: Opt for firm, unblemished, and plump jalapeños with deep green color.
  • Wear Gloves: Capsaicin, the compound that gives jalapeños their heat, can irritate your skin. Wear gloves while handling and cutting the peppers.
  • Remove Seeds and Veins: To reduce the heat, remove the seeds and veins from the jalapeños. This is where most of the capsaicin is concentrated.
  • Roast the Jalapeños: Roasting enhances the smoky and sweet flavors of the peppers. Roast them on a grill, in the oven, or over an open flame.
  • Use a Variety of Cooking Methods: Jalapeños can be grilled, roasted, pickled, stuffed, or added to salsas, sauces, and dips.
  • Balance the Heat: Pair jalapeños with sweet, tangy, or creamy ingredients to balance their spiciness.

Conclusion:

Jalapeños are versatile peppers that add a kick of heat and flavor to various dishes. With their distinct smoky and sweet taste, they enhance salsas, sauces, dips, and main courses. Experiment with different cooking methods and recipes to discover the diverse culinary possibilities of this fiery pepper. Remember to handle jalapeños with care, use gloves to protect your skin, and adjust the heat level to your preference.
