For a sweeter pickle, add 1/4 cup of sugar to the vinegar mixture. Use caution when handling jalapeños; avoid touching your eyes. Wearing gloves is recommended. Feel free to adjust the ratio of carrots, onions, and jalapeños to suit your personal taste. For longer storage, process the filled jars in a boiling water bath according to standard canning procedures.

Dec 13, 2024I was a little hesitant because I'm not a huge fan of spicy food, but these are perfectly balanced. The sweetness of the carrots really mellows out the heat.
