A friend is sharing his unexpected volume of Habs. Nice big, hot, red babies. Plants seem to be going nuts this year. (No spring hardening in South Florida - we're picking already). Any suggestions on using or storing these in bulk? I'm thinking of the usual oil, vinegar, pesto, raw on everything answers, but I'd like to 'preserve' or freeze some for later. Any recipes, tips or suggestions? Tips for drying without a dryer? I saw a special once on Food Network about flash freezing strawberries using dry ice. They freeze so fast the cell walls don't burst, so they aren't mushy when they thaw. Anyone tried this? Time for a science experiment? Thanks, Todd And ps: This is my first post after returning to the list (was a regular years ago). Seems more like a chat room than a pepper list nowadays (s'not, YKYAMI, etc.) Not unsubscribing, but I've seen lots of lists degenerate into 'inside' one-liners from the same people and one jerk (every list seems to have one). Hope CH doesn't suffer that fate.
