Peppers in vinegar/Gogosari in otet

For each 1 qt/1 l vinegar: 1 1/2 cups water, 1 heaping tablespoon salt, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 tablespoon honey, a few bay leaves, a few juniper berries; peppers, tarragon

Choose large peppers, wash and dry. Cut the stem and prick 4-5 times around the core with a knitting pin. Arrange in large glass jars. Set to boil the vinegar with the water, sugar and honey (or replace honey with another 1/2 tablespoon sugar). Add the bay leaves and juniper berries and let boil for a few minutes. Pour while hot over the peppers in jars. Pour gradually, with the ladle, so that the jar does not break. The jar must be wrapped in a wet cloth. Place a handful of washed tarragon on top of the peppers, cover the mouth of the jar with a dessert plate and let sit until the next day. The next day the vinegar level will have decreased so add some more vinegar mixture (prepared as before) to fill the jar. Leave for 2-3 hours and if still needed, add some more vinegar mixture. On the inside of the jar, just at the mouth, add two sticks to form an X. Tie with a double layer of cellophane and keep in a cool place.

Peppers, salt,

Choose large peppers, wash, core and remove seeds. Sprinkle each pepper with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Place the peppers in a large bowl and leave them until the next day. Then move the peppers that were at the bottom to the bottom of the pile, and bring the ones that were at the bottom to the top. Leave them until the next day. The peppers will have softened by then. Place in a jar, pressing with your hands so there are no empty spaces. Pour the liquid the peppers gave off over them. Place two wooden sticks on the inside at the mouth of the jar so that they make an X. Tie with a double layer of cellophane and keep in a cool place.

Answer 3

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers but from where I do not know
Now on a more serious note I think you would have to go to a specialist store or deliccatessen, maybe a health store like Barrets & Holland may stock them or at least point you in right direction.
Failing that book yourself a trip to Romania & stock up with them.
happy hunting
