Hey Bookers, Another question. Regarding your post:   "Posted 18 February 2020 - 06:47 PM   "If it's that short of a period I would make a relish type with a little oil garlic and spices and salt... You could use a few sweet peppers, small onion, garlic and a bit of ginger... steam for about 15...

I like storing foods in glass containers, but my mason style jars use a hard plastic lid that replaces the regular canning lids (not reusable). Problem is while them seem to fit "okay", I actually found they are not air tight. And I don't want any air getting in my hot sauce which could lead to...

Thanks Bookers! Just what I was looking for. It was in my brain already, but I just couldn't find it! And you helped me find it, right besides my marbles! : ) Happy Burning my Friend!

I have been defrosting small bags of my frozen peppers, enough to finish in a month or so, if not sooner, and storing them in the fridge in a glass jar, with around 25% vinegar. But now I'm getting tired of the vinegar taste, smell, etc. Any suggestions for alternative fridge storage methods...

Wow, Thank You All for so much great feedback and information from like minded hot heads! Love to you all. Good to know so many other pepper freaks out there! That and my hot peppers will keep me warm all winter!

:dance:

Good Feedback! Thanks! Just what I needed.

Thank You!

Sorry for off topic question, but can you recommend disposable ph strip brand/manufacturer? I have electric one, but batteries leaked...

Thanks!

I added about 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 cup a.c. vinegar. Think I'm good for a week or two? In the fridge of course.

I purchased fresh, multiple, extremely hot peppers a month ago. Cleaned them and froze them in vacuum bags. Now I want to keep some available for eating everyday. So I defrosted one of the bags (about 1 cup) and diced them up, and put them in a glass mason jar in the refrigerator. I am wondering...

My apologies for replying to email notifications. I'm still learning how to use the forum / system.

Wow, Thanks for the responses! About washing, I was going to put them in a large ziploc with some water and a splash of vinegar, and shake them a bit. Same as I do with veggies. Then dry them. Any comments?

I've just purchased several pounds of fresh Morugas and Scotch Bonnets directly from the farmer and want to freeze them to last for at least 6 months. I have vacuum sealer. I eat all but stems, so I thought I don't need to cut them up before freezing. My question is about washing them. Some say...

  Thank you dragonsfire! I'm ordering a foodsaver this week. I like that mason jar vacuum attachment. Thanks again!  

  Thanks AndyW!  My only concern with that is when I un-freeze them, won't they rehydrate in the air, and be subject to mold, etc.? I think they are at least 6 months old already. I don't know. Think I'll trash'm to be safe. If I ever buy dried again, they'll go directly into mason jars using...

Hi all, I'm fairly new to making sauces, etc. so pardon my ignorance and inexperience. About 6-8 months ago I bought a large amount of dried jolokias, scotch bonnets, red moruga scorpions,....peppers from a farmer in Lancaster county, PA (Amish). I neglected to ask him when they were dried, how...
