Pepper Brine for Stuffed Canned Banana Peppers

Ingredients

• 1 quart 5% cider vinegar
• 1 cup water
• 2 cups sugar
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1/2 tablespoon garlic salt
• 1-2 teaspoon turmeric (for color) (optional)

Directions

1. 1

   Boil brine and add to stuffed peppers (core and remove seeds and membrane, stuff with cabbage or hot dog) in quart jars to within 1/2 inch from top.

2. 2

   Can as usual with hot lids and bands. Add to hot water bath just until boil and remove for jars to seal. **she doesn't hot water bath, says hot jars, brine, lids, seal without water bath, but I know that some zaar folk will give me the lecture on safety and usda recommendations :).
