[Micky Tikka]

Just required a mandolin a few weeks back after a bit of reseach I was told to get the Benriner
I think it was recommend by Thomas Keller I have a few of his cook books

Hi all; haven't been here for a while . . .

On a slightly different subject; I love those pickled chilies that often grace the salads on top of (doner etc.) kebabs.

I don't think they're Jalapenos, they typically 2/3" long and quite fat, and they're generally whole, but they have the slightly vinegary briny taste described here.

Anyone know what they are and how I make 'em?

I guessing the pickle mix described by Salvador would work, but what are the chilies?

thanks

I have never bothered to make them.  They are dirt cheap already pickled and in large jars, at my local farm shop or elsewhere, come in various degrees of heat, and are a pretty d@mned good match for those from my local Turkish takeaway.

Thanks Phil; can't find any locally, could you please let me know the name on the jar?

Decided to take inspiration from this and pickled a load of bullet chillis sliced up jalapeno style. Turned out really good.
I used the following recipe

The main reason for trying this is that sainsburys are doing 2 x sarsons pickling vinegar 1.14l each for just

I've got quite a few Cayenne chillies I'd like to pickle too.  Same as the Jalapenos or should I modify the recipe?
