Hot Pickled Garlic
Food Ingredients:
4 pints Garlic cloves peeled 2 1/2 cups Sugar 2 1/2 cups White wine vinegar 8 long, thin Red chiles (fresh or dried) 8 whl Bay leaves
Recipe preparation:
1 Sort through garlic and trim off any discolored spots or stem ends. Rinse under cold water and set aside. 2 Heat the sugar and vinegar to boiling. Sterilize jars and lids in boiling water and when jars are cool enough to handle, fill each with the garlic cloves. Insert 2 chiles and 2 bay leaves into each jar preferably around the outside so they can be seen. Add the hot brine leaving about 1/2-inch head space. Wipe the rim of the jars clean and screw on sterilized lid and band according to manufacturers directions. 3 Process in a hot water bath for 15 minutes. Remove and allow to cool completely at room temperature away from drafts. Check lids to make sure proper seal has been attained. Store for at least one month before using to allow flavors to develop. 4 This recipe yields 4 pints.
