    Can you tell me what you are planning for the peppers? I have a bunch I don’t know what to do with.

    After eating several in stirfries, stuffed and other yummy ways I decided to dry half and freeze half. Drying is usually best for chilies that have turned completely red, but since we have so many I figured I’d try line-drying them.

    You take sturdy thread and a sturdy needle (we use an upholstery needle and thread) and knot the bottom, then you force the string through the thickest part of the peppers stem and hang the peppers outside or in a well-ventilated area. Interestingly, the green peppers are turning red as they dry.

    The other batch of peppers we sliced in two, removed the seeds and membranes and froze. They’re not so great for stuffing after being frozen, but they’re great chopped up and added to slow cooker meals.
