peel.

Peppers may be blistered using one of the following
methods:

Oven or broiler method: Place peppers in a hot oven

until skins blister.

Range-top method: Cover hot burner, either gas or
electric, with heavy wire mesh. Place peppers on burner for several minutes until skins blister. Cool and peel off
skin. Flatten small peppers. Fill hot jars, leaving l/2-inch headspace. Combine and heat other ingredients to boiling and simmer 10 minutes. Remove garlic. Add hot pickling solution over peppers, leaving 1/2-inch headspace. Adjust lids and process. Use half pint or pint jars only for safety.
