The Trader Joe's Pickled Jalapeño Pepper Slices are the brand's latest product hitting store shelves to help consumers elevate the heat of their favorite recipes this spring and summer. The pantry product starts off with slices of jalapeño that are pickled in a tangy, salty brine which helps to offset the intense heat that the peppers would traditionally offer in their raw form. The result is a spicy condiment that's perfect for putting onto burgers, sandwiches and salads, while the brine could be used for making dressings thanks to its salty, spicy and vinegar-based formula.
The Trader Joe's Pickled Jalapeño Pepper Slices are priced at around $2.99 per jar to position them as a cost-effective option to pick up that boasts artisan inspiration.
