Excess Habernos and Jalepenos

Hothead · Sep 15, 2013

Hi Everyone

This year I grew some hot peppers, habernos and jalepenos. In retrospect the habernos were a big mistake. First, when I brought the plant, I found there were two and not just one. Needless to say they did very well but now I am stuck with figuring out what to do them them all. I strung some with needle, thread and from a tree to dry. But I still have over60 more and am at a loss what to do with them all.

I have a few jalepenos left and would like to try something different with those.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

few options for the jalapenos. you can freeze them to buy you more time or make jam out of them.

Hot sauce, jelly, poppers, pickled.... I had 6 jalapeño and 4 hab plants this year. Tons of pods but I am not complaining

double ziplock'em and put them in the freezer(roughly 6 months), when thawed they'll be a lil mushy but otherwise no change or dry completely to a "crackly crunch" and store in airtight containers out of sunlight/heat.(last roughly 1 year+)
Like some other folks I like to smoke mine prior to completely drying.
Good Luck !

Another option is send some of those pods my way!!!!!

I loooooove jalapenos. My wife cuts 'em in half, seeds them, stuffs with cream cheese and them wraps 'em in bacon. While she is doing that I twist one up and fly to the stratosphere. Have you ever eaten a jalapeno popper on weed? It's almost a spiritual experience.
