I am looking for a recipe for pickled banana peppers, and found this one. What I am having a problem with is the horseradish that this recipe calls for. I have never heard of horseradish in a pickleing recipe. I haven't made this recipe yet and I think I will pass this one up and find another one. But Thank you just the same. -
The peppers were mushy and tasted like just vinegar. I am new at this, but followed directions?!?! -
