How to bottle chillies?

Sticky this thread?

Am now hugely craving chilli. My lunch is going to seem so bland........

Do you guys know the restaurant O'Crumbs?

To preserve chillis simply put in a jar of salt water and seal. Last for ages and maintain their flavour.

I make a devil chilli paste with olive oil, garlic, either a bit of sugar or I put in sultanas. I then blend to a fine paste and put in a jar. I just cover the conconction with a layer of olive oil to prevent exposure to the atmposphere. Cant stand cooked chillis so only eat raw.

I've got 10 plants growing in my backyard. Mostly american variations. For some reason the local chillies are struggling a bit.

Ie: Chilli Pesto We bought some lovely premade jars on our honeymoon. It basically contained all the spices required and all you had to do was add olive oil when you needed it. I wonder if somebody sells something like that in SA?

@Mila, Never heard of O'Crumbs

And my bad... The chilli variations are called MOJO, not Pesto, Found the company who makes the ones we bought in spain, now to see if anyone in SA brings it in. http://www.argodeyfortaleza.com/

It's an addiction I tell you. I'm seeking help so I can enjoy bland tasteless food again. Hello my name is Hosehead and I'm a chili addict.

I half agree. I love chilli, but also love my food. If I want my chicken to taste like Chilli... I'll just rather eat the chilli, But small amounts can make a dish go from boring and bland, too exciting and divine

These are the local varieties I'm having trouble with. They take forever to sprout and when they do, the plants require a lot of attention so they don't die.

I got my other seeds from www.reimerseeds.com.
