What state do you use peppers in? NO, not like Texas! Like cooked or raw.

Do you need help identifying a 🌶?
Is your plant suffering from an unknown issue? 🤧
Then ask in Identification and Diagnosis.

Raw, cooked and pickled but this year i will probably need to move a little more to dried.
You know there is a poll
Yeah I can't participate in the poll until there's an "all of the above option," but this is definitely a goddess for courses kinda thing. I guess I tend to prefer applications where I am using raw, fresh pods to cook with, but there are situations where the dried pod's character is entirely altered from the fresh version, and only the dry/powdered will do in a particular recipe. An example would be chili con carne, where in likely to use both fresh poblanos and dried Ancho powder.. Plus about a dozen other chiles in various states, too.
They say that variety is the spice of life; I prefer some variety amongst my spices.

You just check them all like hogleg did.

 Can we get a mod to click that one for me too 
 
there is no most for me. I like em all 
There is more used for certain applications for me though.
Examples;Â In salads or as appetizers i'm more likely to use pickled peppers, but i also use fresh, hot sauces, and even powders in my salads tooÂ
On cooked meat probably more likely to use sauces, but i might use any or all of them when preparing the meat.
The only choice i hardly ever use when preparing food is chili oil infusion and not for any specific reason, i just haven't very often.Â

What happens if you make candied peppers and pulverize them in the blender? I bet it makes a nice hot sugar for ice cream or ribs etc.
Raw, and raw from a cooked state for me. I do make and cook with some powders/flakes, but it's raw/cooked from raw most of the time. I am counting raw as frozen pods as well, during the Winter.
I will top my already cooked food with sauces and mashes, but I don't really ever cook with them.
