The kids have eaten some of them, and now it’s time to preserve the rest. See below for what you’ll need, and follow along with the video.

We have grown these Peppers from seed in a DWC system from Growilla Hydroponics, and it has been an awesome journey and great experiement. We have been fairly hard on the plant to try and get the maximum amount of Pepper Pods from it, and it ended up producing 1.6kg of Ripe Bell Peppers. They are full of flavour, with some zing but no spice. This makes them a great choice for preserving, and will hopfully make a very tasty side dish.

Please do store in the fridge as I didn’t. I put them in a cool place but it obviously wasn’t cool enough and they went mouldy. I was gutted as I followed the instructions carefully from another recipe.
Nice *
I think prior to grill, remove the seeds
Can I use just green ones as I got heaps just harvested…
Any alternative to
Sugar .. would honey work
Thank you for this, not what people want to hear but after post-ovarian cancer complications with obstructions in bowel..I have to avoid skins and seeds and really miss red peppers! So this is amazing, probably (?) not what you intended this video for 😆 Also great for ilestomists/crohn's/cancer patients and will post in my groups. Thanks so much!
So you are PICKLING them?
Can you use this technique and recipe for hot peppers? Without charring?
I'm confused – One video says that any water in the jar will cause the food to go bad after a couple of weeks. Another video says absolutely do not refrigerate, just store in a cool place. Your method involves adding water (brine) and refrigerating. Can you tell us if your batch lasted more than a couple of months and if they were as good as you anticicpated?
You can close the peppers on a paper bag for them to steam. Works very well.
I do my eggplants in a similar manner but I don't refrigerate I keep at room temp for a year
I'm a diabetic.. can I can these without the sugar? Or is the sugar needed to make the peppers safe for shelf storage?
bell pepers in the refridgerator
This was delicious, never buying preserved peppers again, now doing my second batch!
Wow. You sure use a lot of unnecessary pans!
Call it a stem….not a stalk.
Best recipe I’ve seen yet. Makes sense.
Great directions, same flavor I’ve gotten in jar from store, love making my own! Already used on my panini sandwiches w slice of roasted chicken and swiss cheese, just perfect, thank you so much💞
