Hey!

Made two mistakes:
1) soaked peppers with stems and seeds, removed before chopping
2) used a whole (smaller sized) red bell pepper instead of a 1/2 cup.

Still safe to use? I’m not worried about texture and have a pressure canner if needed, or can just freeze.

    Canning recipe (ingredients only, that’s the part I messed up):

    4oz dried chili peppers
    4 cups tomatoes
    2 cups onions
    3/4 cups lightly packed brown sugar (I used sugar+molasses)
    1 cup cider vinegar
    1/2 cup chopped seeded red pepper
    Spices+salt
    4 tbsp garlic

    I think this is going to come within an acceptable amount of deviance to the recipe. Not all veg are the same size but a small pepper would come to about 1/2 to 2/3 cup once chopped.

    Read more carefully next time.
