Demon Red?I've grown three chilli plants in the poly this year and they look to be ready for picking and drying.
One was a Cayenne pepper and these are the other two.
I'm tempted to take some of these down to the pub this evening and offer some of my drinking buddies the opportunity to take part in some sort of chilli challenge. Knowing them how I do, I reckon they'll be daft enough to try anything.
Here are the plants ready for picking this afternoon.
Scotch Bonnet.
Cayenne.
Demon Red.
What a lot I've got! I'll definitely make sure that I wear gloves when I pick them. I once had a nasty incident.

That's plenty enough for me. I grew my first ever chillies about four or five years ago and it took us at least three to eat them. I planted a few too many plants and we quite literally gave buckets full away.

S B are the base capsicum in my hot garam .
with all three you have trying a combo for a long store dried anchovy garam is a good bet to get a balanced result.

If you take them down the pub, take some yoghurt too. Some people might have a bad reaction to them.

I'm still picking.
I'm still picking. I got this bucket full of peppers and the chillis from the poly this morning. The chillis have just been put into the airing cupboard to dry.

We made about 50 half-pints of hot pepper jelly last week, and the OH just made another 20 or so half-pints of hot pepper relish!

Those capsicums look really pretty in all the different colours. How did the chilli tasting go?
You should have enough hot pepper jelly and relish to last for years Slim! I take it it was a good chilli year for you too.
