I received this as a Christmas gift last year and really enjoyed it. There are a bunch of recipes in it too! Sorry about the sideways pic- i read something on here about fixing sideways iPhone pics but can't remember how at the moment.

Good Morning THP! Today I'll be getting the my seeds started in the aerogarden. Got one of those cool 50 spot starter trays so hopefully no damage removing seedlings for transplanting this year. I decided to add Fataliis from Seed Savers Exchange into the mix so I can see how I do compared to...

    Glad to know that works well- I just ordered one yesterday! I had a great start to my peppers last year until I damaged half of the plants getting them out of the cages. 

That Lawson's Sip of Sunshine is absolutely awesome! I grab some every time I see it.   The sun will be setting soon so for me it's time to Enter Night. Metallica hooked up with Arrogant Brewing for this one. As a lifelong Metallica fan I had to try it! Decent tasting pilsner but it was more the...

Welcome back TGCM I've missed your drool worthy cooking posts! You've got some SERIOUS culinary skills.   I'm so sorry you had to go through what you did- it looks terribly painful. Glad to hear you've recovered and that your family is doing well.   Kristen

Received this awesome box of JPGS with a 7 Pot Cinder and Leviathan Gnarly Scorpion added from Saiias yesterday! I've never had the Cinder or Leviathan so really looking forward to trying them. Very nice handwritten note included as well.  Gonna be doing some spicy cooking this weekend for sure...

Hi Phormic   :welcome: to THP I have stored some homemade sauces in the freezer for up to a year with good results. I usually make mini batches of just 2 or 3 bottles that keep fine in the fridge, but when I make a larger batch I will freeze some of it in half pint mason jars. If you're short on...

Just did a few quarts this morning... I'm guilty of using Ball Dill pickle mix but I usually throw in some black peppercorns and go a little bit heavier on the vinegar.  Some slices for sandwiches and burgers, some regular spears, and one jar with extra garlic and dragon cayennes for me. Next...

That looks delicious. I bet with the basil it would taste great mixed into some tomato sauce for a spicy marinara. 

Roasting and peeling 10 lbs of hatch chile that got delivered yesterday, drying the last of my superhots left in the freezer (gotta make room), and making a few quarts of fridge pickles since my one cucumber vine is putting out more cukes than I know what to do with!         

Been a rainy weekend here in Little Rhody so I've been going through last year's freezer stash to make some room for this season. I had a few yellow peppers left so decided on a mini (read ONE lonely bottle) batch of sauce.    2  Yellow Fatalis 2 Yellow Ghost 1 White Fatali 2 medium Lemon Boy...

I've always enjoyed the Belizean Heat, which is also a habanero sauce. I usually keep about half a dozen sauces to use and share with coworkers and this is one that I always have around. "Safe" for non-chileheads and hot enough for heat seekers to add a nice little kick to their lunch. 

+1 on this   Without doing this I would end up with tons of ice crystals in my freezer bags. I started doing this and have bags of peppers about a year old that still look as good as the day I put them in the freezer.   I also agree with Justaguy about dehydrated vs. frozen.   Experiment and...

Finally had some time to do this... Reaper, mixed superhots, and Jay's Peach Ghost Scorpion vinegars. I'm actually sitting here watching the peppers in the big jar slowly start sinking one by one... A Lava Lamp for chileheads perhaps?? :high:   The bottom photo was a mix of various roasted red...

Just another post telling people Wicked Mike rocks...Thanks Mike! Beautiful handwriting BTW :D
