We went on a trip beginning of September, bad timing of course, and the first chili’s where just ripening. By the time we would come back a part of the chili’s would probably be bad, so a harvest and preserving is necessary before we leave.
So a quick round trough the greenhouse and the chili patch outside gave a mountain of, mainly green, chili’s. I do prefer to wait until chili’s turn red, but with bad timing we will have to do with a lot of green once this time.
Cutting them took some time and then I put them in the dehydrator. I dehydrated them for about 15 hours at 70°C, which turned out to be a bit too long (I forgot to check on them in between) and the chili’s came out roasted. I hope they will not have a burned taste; we have not tried them yet.
I filled all chili’s in jars for storage.
We will use these to make sweet chili sauce and I am probably going to make some chili flakes or powder (what works best) to spice up some dishes.
