One way to preserve whole jalapeno peppers is by pickling them. To do this, sterilize canning jars and lids by boiling them for 10 minutes. In a saucepan, combine white vinegar, water, salt, and any desired spices and boil the mixture. Pack the jalapenos into the jars and pour the pickling liquid over them, leaving a small amount of headspace. Seal the jars and process them in a boiling water bath for 10-15 minutes. The pickled jalapenos can be stored in a cool, dark place for up to one year. Alternatively, you can freeze whole jalapenos by simply washing and drying them, placing them in a freezer-safe bag or container and freezing them for up to 6 months.
Flank steaks do not need to be marinated, but marinating can help to enhance their flavor and make them more tender. Flank steaks are a lean cut of beef, so marinating can add moisture and flavor to the meat. A marinade typically consists of an acid (such as vinegar or citrus juice), oil, and seasonings. Aim to marinate flank steaks for at least 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours for maximum flavor. However, if you prefer a simpler preparation, you can simply season the steak with salt and pepper and cook it to your desired doneness.

Therefore, it is recommended to consume roasted or cooked cashews rather than raw ones. Additionally, individuals allergic to certain tree nuts may also need to avoid cashews roasted in the same facility to prevent cross-contamination.
