HELPPPPP! I can't find my recipe. Does anyone out there have a good
canning recipe for pickled hot pepper rings that are hot as heck but
slightly on the sweet side?

Hope some dear person on this list can help me out. I've got half a
bushel of the little devils whining for my attention.

Cheers,

Ross's recipe for "Rings of Fire", posted here occasionally, are very
good. You might want to increase the sugar a little if you want them to
be sweet. Let's see if I can google the recipe...
