hot pepper recipes?

[Crow Hunter]

I have a couple of pepper plants left in the garden with quite a few hot peppers still on them. I am going to pick them before it gets cold later this week. I may make some chili/garlic sauce with some of them, anybody else have any ideas? I love hot and spicy.

[leech~~]

I made some Hot sauce with my end of season Jalepeno's, but went a few steps more!

I added:

Jalepeno's, Habanero's, Serrano's, Thai peppers and a few larger Anaheims for a base to one or more cups of White Vinegar in to a blender. Blended as smooth as I could get, brought to a boiled in a deep pan and then simmered for about 20min's on stove with (fan) on! Then put into in a canning jar.

Turned out great and Hot!  I just add a spoon full when making stuff like Chili!

Oh edit add: If your eye's start to water or itch when making this. DON'T RUB YOUR EYES!!

[LindellProStaf]

Man Leech, that sauce sounds downright painful.

 

[reinhard1]

Sounds good to me Leech!!  I buy a hot pepper paste in a large tub from a Korean Store in town.  Great stuff.  Just depends how much you use.  good luck.

That's why I steal rubber gloves while waiting for the doctor....

Funny. I was in a clinic today, and was eyeing up the boxes of rubber gloves. Decided to not break any of the ten commandments.

They throw away many pairs.  Just think of it as advance recycling...

Or break down and buy a box of them at your favorite retail outlet.   They are like 8 bucks a box on amazon. 

Do you worry about using one of your doctor's kleenex?

I figure 3 or 4 pairs of gloves take the place of the free drug samples or the suckers they used to give ya.

Del, get back on subject! Enough of your penny pinching ideas for the Doctors office!

I dry my extras in the dehydrator and then grind in the spice grinder

[jmd1]

So if you take them clean them up and put them in a jar with vinegar, onion, and carrots, let them set for a couple weeks and they will be as sweet as you can handle.  The carrots and onions add a bit more sweet taste to them.  You could roast them and make up a good salsa.  I love chiles, can't get enough of them.  I bought 700 lb of Anaheim's from Hatch NM a few years ago.  Roasted them on my grill every night for a couple weeks, put them in ziplock and froze them in my upright freezer.  My son 8 at the time and i would go through 3 bags a day.  So good with every meal.  

[leechlake]

I made this tonight based on Leech's suggestion:

1 pound Jalepenos

1 pound Anaheims

large handful of Habeneros

1 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon minced garlic

1 cup vinegar

blended it smooth and then boiled and simmered for about 20-30 minutes.  Put in jar.

Had it on stir fry tonight, I like really hot food and this was hot enough to leave a burn on your lips for a good while and perfect mixed in with the stir fry, I probably used a half dozen spoonfuls from time to time sprinkled on top.  

[Grainbelt]

I cold smoked my peppers for 12 hours, then slice in half and dehydrate them and put them in canning jars. I like to grind them and sprinkle on whatever I'm cooking - just about.

[delcecchi]

Like Chipotle peppers (not the restaurant).  They are smoked jalapenos.

[Boar]

thats awsome!

Same here...and I blend 2 or 3 varieties, and use in my soups/stews.

OK pepperheads, I might be interested in doing this. I go thru a lot of the crushed red peppers you buy in the spice department. whaat type of peppers  would I need to brew up a batch?????????

[RebelSS]

Mostly cayenne peppers are used in the "red pepper flakes" you see in stores. Jalapenos can also be used. I mixed both together, with some Anaheim to smooth 'em out. Any small red, such as Thai's, can be used, too. Some I will cut lengthwise and roast on the charcoal grill, then do the following....(minus the wash) I first wash mine, split, cut into 4 strips, then crosswise ( dry quicker) remove seeds, then put in my dehydrator. (use a good one with an adjustable temp gauge) Dry per instructions (NOT INDOORS!!!!  believe me, use garage!!) I then remove when almost brittle dry and put in my grinder...takes many pulses to get ground down right. Here's a good chart of peppers just for you, Smurfy...I use it a lot. PS: Keep well sealed in a GLASS jar.

This is the first year I made hot pepper sauce. I followed this basic recipe and couldn't be happier. 

 

[leechlake]

like I said I love hot stuff...but I smoked some jalepenos today and purposely left the seeds in.  Took them out a bit ago and took a bit  eof one.   The roof of my mouth is about to blow off the top of my head!  I bit a raw habenero last night no problem.  I'm wagering drying the jalepenos out helps the schoval units?  Whew!

[RebelSS]

LOL  Ya, roasting with the seeds intensifies the heat. Them little devils get pretty nasty like that.
