Preserving Cayenne Peppers
I harvested some cayenne peppers. How do I preserve them? Can they be
frozen ...whole or with seeds removed? I cut some up and removed the seeds and left them to dry. Will these be able to be ground up into cayenne powder?

Jo:
Yes they can be frozen, I would stem/seed them first. We put japalenos in the food processor, freeze them in snack size bags. Break a chunk off to use. I dry them whole in the oven on the lowest temp then grind them up. We also make cayenne pepper juice - stem/seed cover with vinegar add salt and garlic to taste. Cook till very mushy. Put through food mill. Use liberally! John! "Jo M" wrote in message ... I harvested some cayenne peppers. How do I preserve them? Can they be frozen ...whole or with seeds removed?

Why get rid of the seeds? The seeds contain a lot of the flavor.
I put our hot peppers in the toaster oven and set it at 250 degrees. This let them dry slowly. Once they were crisp (and still hot), I put them in old jelly jars, screwed the lids on tight, and let the jars seal. This probably wasn't necessary -- I have stored dried peppers in paper bags for a number of years without any hint of spoilage. They got eaten by bugs one year, though.

Ray:
Cosmetics for the sauce, the seeds make white bits that really detract from the appearance. John! "Ray Drouillard" wrote in message ... Why get rid of the seeds?
