NOTES : Note: To pickle chipotle peppers, combine 6 peppers that have been
      stemmed and, if desired, seeded with 2 cups of red wine vinegar
      in a small nonreactive saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce the
      heat so the vinegar is simmering. Cook, covered, for 5 minutes. Set
      aside to cool, then store in a glass jar in the refrigerator for up
to 3 months
