So I grew a bunch of peppers this year. Nothing too crazy, maybe I'll do so exotic really hot types next year. So anyways, I'm looking for some good ideas of what to do with all the peppers I'm gonna have. Any hotsauce ideas or anything lemme know.

hilarious jalepeno bushel!

Grew these with earth juice nutes. In sunshine4. I swear the red chili and cayennea are comparable in heat to a habanero! I know they should be according to the scoville scale but they are every bit as hot.
 
those look great!! if i had some peppers already i would make some beans. or make some salsa with some tomatoes. maybe also can them if someone in the house eats jalepenos alot. cook some wonderful food with them! try something new.
 
if you like scrambled eggs with a twist, saute a little of those peppers on a pan with olive oil and a bit of salt. Once the juices come out and the smell as well, pour the eggs and scramble them any way you like them. The eggs will taste a little bit hot but also sweet.
 
I'll tell you what not to do with those Cayenne peppers... Don't fuck with some of them, then come inside and get stoned and forget about having Cayenne juice on your hands and rub your eyes. Yeah, definitely don't do that..
 
I make a popper dip. Fry up small cut pieces of bacon and your peppers. Add your cream cheese and melt it all together. Enjoy with tortilla chips. Slammin i promise.
 
top 3 things i love to do with my peppers is pickling, chillie(chillie verde, chillie beans, chillie sauce...ex) & making your own homemade hot sauce. I love eating the jalapanos raw :)
 
make chili and other assorted stews, the milder round ones can be stuffed, be sure to grill some of 'em (perhaps with onions and mushrooms) and throw 'em on some burgers and other assorted sandwiches, make some salsa, some nachos, some homefries, some omlettes, or make a marinade.

use some of them to contaminate delicious looking fruit and offer it to someone. funny as hell.

I've been doing this with smoked gouda instead of cream cheese lately. It's fucking delicious. Great suggestion.
 
You can dice and freeze them for later use.
Put a cookie sheet in the freezer and dice a few at at time and spread them out on the cookie sheet, let freeze and package.
 
Pickle the smaller ones with garlic, onions, and cucumbers. make fresh garden salsa or pica de gallo with the larger one. Roast the big ones until the skin blisters. place in wet towels to allow steaming and then peel after about an hour. mix with salt and garlic and serve with main dishes. Pork ribs, Mutton ribs, roast beef, pancakes (yes, pancakes), pork chops, etc., etc.. Make some ristras to dry for use later. :)
 
Mhmmm yup guys I'm lovin it. For sure gonna do some chilli and hotsauce. Doin it exactly like Carne said (haven't put peppers in pancakes that one will be new). Then also probably gonna dry some, as I have multiple plants of each. One thing I look forward to most is jam. A friend who got me into peppers made a chili jam that goes great on toast, sweet and spicy yum!

[h=3]Trini Tuesday-Buljol[/h]

I learned to make many local dishes when I lived in Trinidad and several of them are favorites for my kids. Many times the ingredients have not been available in local grocery stores but a year ago a specifically Trinidadian grocery store opened up in the middle of the Poconos. Yay!!!! My son asked for buljol for dinner the other day so I thought I'd share it with you all.



Buljol:
From the French patois, "Brûlê Gueule," or "burn mouth," a mixture of shredded, de-salted codfish, oil, onion, tomatoes, black, hot and/or sweet peppers, etc. Apparently the original recipe called for really hot peppers -- hence the name "burn mouth."
-- From Cote Ci, Cote La: Trinidad & Tobago Dictionary, by John Mendes, © 1986.


This is a recipe that everyone makes but everyone makes a little differently. I did some searching for authentic recipes and came up with such variations. They all had the same ingredients for the most part but how they readied them was different. I will simply give you my variation. Since it is more or less a salad sort of thing you can play around with the amount of the ingredients to suit yourself. It's most commonly eaten for breakfast in Trinidad but we generally eat if for dinner or lunch. It's great in the hot weather.

BULJOL a la Lime
8-12 oz. pack of saltcod or other salt preserved mild fish
1 large onion
1 bell pepper
1 hot pepper, (jalapena, habanero, whatever floats your boat, this is optional if you don't like it hot)
1 large or two medium tomatoes
2 Tbsp lemon or lime juice
Black pepper to taste

-Soak the saltcod overnight in about 8 cups of water. Change the water in the morning and a couple times during the day. Boil it in fresh water, drain, and boil again. It smells really fishy and gross during this process but it will taste fine if you've soaked it and rinsed it. Honest, I promise.
-Drain again and gently squeeze out excess water. Flake finely with two forks or your fingers.
-Finely dice all the veggies.
-Mix veggies, fish, lemon juice, and pepper.
-Serve it cold on hard rolls with sliced, hardboiled eggs, or avocado (called 'zaboca' in Trinidad).

By the way, this is very low calorie food.


Just add some culantro (NOT cilantro) and you're good to go.

Very lovely peppers, by the way ^^ I don't like spicy food but I like the flavor of a good pepper and your plants look amazing x

Spicy seafood, that would be a new one. I'll save this recipe to use for later.
Oh I love spicy food! But these peppers are stupid hot raw.

this is a cayenne I have drying that finished early. I started these from seed and grew em indoors with my buds in veg. Lol learned pretty quick they flower opposite to cannabis! And yes I took a nibble out, they're so damn yummy!
 
pickling is a good idea. I did a quick version just by soaking peppers cucumbers and onions in a vinegar based marinade. the peppers were my favorite part. quick and easy.
