How to Make Pimientos
- Wash pimientos thoroughly and remove the inner seeds and membranes.
- Cut pimientos into 1/2-inch strips or small pieces.
- Place pimientos in a heatproof bowl and cover with boiling water. Let soak for 5 minutes.
- Drain the water completely.
- In a glass or enamel saucepan, combine white vinegar, water, and sugar.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
- Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in minced garlic, olive oil, and salt.
- Pack the pimientos into a sterilized quart canning jar.
- Carefully pour the vinegar mixture over the peppers, ensuring they are fully submerged.
- Allow the jar to cool completely before sealing (if canning). Refrigerate for at least two weeks to allow flavors to meld. Store in the refrigerator for up to several months.
