I have a lot of hot peppers (habenero, Thai and Cayenne) that are still
green. We should be getting a frost very soon..in the next few days. Can I
just pick all of them and use them green or is there a way to get them to
ripen up after being picked? Either way they will probably make a good
sauce.
Thanks,
John
Here's what I do. I pull the plants out of the ground and hang them upside
down in a place where the plants will not freeze. The chilies continue to
rippen.
