Notes

****** When handling the hot peppers, it is highly recommended you wear gloves to protect your hands (and face or eyes if touched afterwards) from burning, as the peppers are extremely hot/spicy. 
 
After a few days, the cabbage and carrots will soften slightly but retain their crunch which will add texture to any meal.
This bright pikliz is the ideal for any time of the year and is perfect for backyard parties, and beach parties, and family functions. 
Pikliz usually last up to 6 months in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Just add vinegar as the liquid lowers.
Using a mason jar is also great for storing pikliz as well.
