  • Welcome back for episode 88 of It's Alive with Brad Leone where this week our man with the plan sets out to pickle peppers. Now, pickled peppers obviously present a great tongue twister for a master linguist like Mr. Leone, but the real appeal lies in that they're delicious and add a kick to nearly anything. Make a jar and it will keep in the fridge for up to two weeks, giving you access to these chill chilies right when you want them.

      It's definitely the top of a double boiler, it's thin on purpose and that weird ridge in the side is meant to fit the lip of the pot below it.

    • @amaz21
      @amaz21 Před 3 lety +8

      Agree with the double boiler… I believe kiwi birds are always looking down because they are always looking for food. They have nostrils at the end of their beaks that allow them to sense their prey underground (as well as many other interesting characteristics like being flightless)

    When you next come to New Zealand Brad you need to see the bush chickens in person. Truly amazing creatures and bigger than people think.

    Not Brad using a double-boiler pot on direct heat lol. It's so thin because it's meant to sit over a steam bath - that ridge around the bottom fits into the other pot and holds it steady.
