Seemore... they really look good, I can still do jalapenos...but the habs, I have to leave them to the younger folks...lol..

Well, we finally got them all dried tonight after about 24 hours:

The red peppers had a really nice 'sweet' hot taste to them. The green were quite spicy.
We will be grinding them down to a powder, and will post the pics when we do them. As we will be leaving tomorrow for a four-week camping outing, it may be a while before we do this.

Scott and June, you guys have a safe trip! Take the pork and crawfish sausage with you.

seemore · August 27, 2011, 11:00:08 PM

KyNola, the sausage has already been packed in the fifth wheel!
While Mrs watched tv, I ground the peppers. Here is my very own chipotle powder:

I have not tried it yet, because I am SCARED!!!! ???

seemore what do u use to grind the peppers?

pensrock · August 28, 2011, 08:23:41 AM

i crush the dried peppers then use a spice grinder. its best to do it outside with a fan or breeze to your back to keep the dust away from your face. i'm speaking from experience. :o

Seemore.............They look good.

BTW......have you tried doing an iced coffee with those Newman's Own K-cups? It's my go to for iced coffee!!!
I get mine from BJ's in the 80 cup box.

just let them on the plant longer, they will turn red. not all of them but quite a few.

Pepper apron ($9.99) is item # 240-742 and the pepper holder ($14.99)is item # 231-885. There is also a mortar and pestle ($19.99) for those who like to hand grind their spices. It is item # 231-890 on page 151.
