I actually prefer Scotch Bonnets over Habaneroās, but there currently is nobody in my area that is growing fresh batches.
The vinager and brine are a must, theyāre the preservatives after all. I donāt add sugar, that is one of the points that chatgpt got wrong. I get a bit of sweetnes already from the cider vinager and peeled tomatoes. (also, Iām not too fond of sweet flavors. Iād rather sit in front of the tv with a bucket of olives instead of chocolate or candy)
