* You should start to hear "popping" sound while cooling that means the jars are sealing properly
* Store in pantry for up to a year
* Use rubber gloves when cutting hot peppers
You can use any type of peppers you would like in this recipe.  I have used this recipe to make pickled habanero peppers has well.  Habanero peppers are spicier than jalapenos, so just be careful ;)
