An mexican pickled vegetables recipe I wanted to make (see link below) said to simmer the vegetables in hot vinegar for 10 minutes prior to packing then
processing for another 10 minutes in a hot bath. I don't want to overcook the vegetables. Could I simply pack the vegetables, fill the jars with hot
vinegar (190 degrees plus) then water bath for 10 minutes?

The recipe states rather clearly that it is important the the peppers be thoroughly cooked before going in the jars. I would not recommend deviating from that
recommendation. And just packing in hot liquid is not the same.
I seriously doubt the recipe has ever been tested for safety and I personally would not make it, but that's up to you.
