Pickled Habanero Peppers

An excellent spark to fire up your taste buds when eating almost anything!  Just don’t kiss your wife or girlfriend after chewing one!  And keep away from kids!  Do wear gloves when cutting them into pieces for pickling.

1/2 lb habanero peppers
1 cup water
1 cup white vinegar

Cut the habaneros cross-wise into 1/4-inch rings and remove the seeds.  Place them in small jars with a cap.  Mix the vinegar and water in a pourable container and pour them over the cut peppers until just covered.  Cap and place in the refrigerator.  Use a clean spoon or fork to take out the pieces when needed – a piece or two will suffice to accompany a meal!  They are fiery hot, but yum!  Save the vinegar solution after the habaneros have all gone – they make great flavored vinegar when making salad dressings!
