"One of my favourite pickling recipes. You can adjust the spiciness of these by increasing or decreasing the amount of peppers to add to a jar. The longer these sit, the better they taste.Of course you can cut these into rounds if you prefer."

Loved these! The dill really shines and I just love the spiciness. We've used them on several antipasto trays and sometimes I just put them out to snack on. Would probably be great in a Bloody Mary...

Love these little nibbles. Great on an antipasto tray or vegetable platter to snack on. I also made one jar, with the carrots cut in rounds; they were great in a salad. Easy and really delicious.
