How To Navigate Pickled Jalapeños
There are many types of commercial, ready to use pickled jalapeños available from your local market. They are a mainstay for many classic sandwiches such as Mexican Beef Milanesa Tortas & Tortas Cubana. Unopened jars may be stored in a cool dry cupboard up to 2 years.
The Technique
Pickled jalapeños may be purchased in cans or jars & either sliced, minced or whole. Depending on the application for which they are to be used will best determine the style you should buy. Minced pickled jalapeños are great when heat & twang are desired throughout recipes & for consistent flavor. Try them in dips & quesadillas. Sliced pickled jalapeños are wonderful for use over tortas, hamburgers & pizza or may be served on the side. Whole pickled jalapeños are often used for daring individuals who desire bold heat throughout a dish or sandwich. If cans are selected, once open, transfer the remaining jalapeños to a container with a tight fitting lid & place in the refrigerator. Open jars should be refrigerated as well. Both types of pickled jalapeños may be used within 3 months.
