    Hot Pepper Harvest.

    http://www.durgan.org/URL/?LUSES 24 September 2009 Hot Pepper Harvest.
    Four plants, purchased from a supplier, hence no name for the cultivar. All the peppers were picked.The pods are dried in the greenhouse, then will be placed in the blender and reduced to make red hot paprika, for use as a condiment. There is still some left from last year. All peppers grow well in my garden with little care, except for a drink of vinegar and water periodically to locally decrease the pH.

    when you say reduced what do you mean exactly???

    and do you think these are the same? kinda looks like yours are a bit longer than mine.

    either way good job, i think im doing the same with mine, do you blend them to flake size or powdered?

    When the peppers are bone dry, they are reduced to almost a powder-not quite but as close as possible. This is sprinkled on various food for a bit of heat. A little of the condiment goes a long way.
