Hello ,
I read up on this and concluded that canning peppers wasn't
for me. You either need to use vinegar to up the acidity or employ a
pressure cooker and be damned sure you know what you're doing or you'll
end up with botulism if you screw up and eat the rotten peppers. Botulism
doesn't just give you diarrhea for a day and that's that, botulism can
literally kill you.
