Chili Garlic Vinegar

Submitted by Rita1652

"Here's a spicy vinegar for those of you that like it HOT! You can use any chili pepper you can get. Use to flavor your salad dressings or to marinade any piece of meat you like. This is a great way to display the excess peppers from your garden. It's so pretty I've seen people not use it and just display the pretty bottles. Great for gift giving.Oh Yes you can eat the peppers if you can handle them!"

When dad was alive he would always make his 'special' vinegar..the recipe was never written down. I searched high and low and found no comparison. Found your recipe last night. This is it! :) Made one batch today, more peppers coming on in the garden. Every one in the family will be happily surprised come Thanksgiving day..lol....(early Christmas). This recipe has brought back some very good; and hot memories. Thank you for sharing!

This reminds me of eating okra gumbo at my grandparents house, he always had some hot vinegar on hand which we loved in the gumbo. The Thai peppers really "kicked it up a knotch", will make more for Christmas presents!! Thanks Rita!
