One recipes says to wash drain remove stems and seeds, boil 3 minutes, drain, pack leaving 1 inch headspace. Add 1T vinegar and 1/2 salt to each pint. Make sure the boiling water covers the peppers. Pints and 1/2 pints only. 35 min. at 10# pressure. Another recipe say 40 min. at 5# pressure. There's also a rec. in this months Countryside. I prefer to freeze them.

Lynn has been processing all ours through the dehydrators. They're great for cooking and when she isn't looking, I sneak a pack for snacking.

Patty,peppers freeze so easily and so well you might try freezing them instead of canning. I grow a lot of a sweet pepper called "Red Ruffled Pimiento" and they freeze well and keep most of their texture and flavor for years in the freezer.
