Pickled Hot Baby Peppers (Biberiye Tursusu)

For a 1 pint jar:
~1/2 lb chili baby peppers (ornamental)
1 Tsp salt
½ cup vinegar
2-3 cloves of garlic
1-3 tsp sugar (optional)
Filtered water

Wash the chili baby peppers and cut the stems off. Peel the garlic. Preferably try to fit as many peppers as you can in a glass jar (1 pint). Add the garlic cloves in between. Then, add salt and vinegar on top and fill all the way up with filtered water making sure the peppers are all immersed in liquid. If desired add sugar in order to reduce the hotness level of the peppers. Sugar will eliminate the chill level. Close the lid and shake it upside down to mix up the vinegar and salt.
Store in a dark and cool place up to 7-10 days. Depending on the storage temperature, the pickled hot peppers would be ready to eat by then. Refrigerate after opening the jar.
ENJOY
