Answer 2

I thread then onto heavy thread through their stems... then hang them in the sun on my porch for a few weeks, and then the garage (cool & dry space). I then toss them into a mason Jar.

Sometimes I'll also hang them in the oven while I'm drying jerky-beef if the weather is humid.

Also do it will Bay Laurel leaves from down the street.

Answer 3

If they are still on the bushes just pull up the plants and hang them upside down in a dry place out of the sun.

Answer 4

it could have been a Japonica or Chipolte, they are dried smoked Jalapenos, Casacabelos to are small, even Cayenne peppers in there entire state, i'm a former chef, and characteristic offered dried crimson Savina Habeneros right here in Toronto ON from my buddy and la Hacienda interior the Kensington marketplace

Answer 5

The other way to do it is in a food dehydrator....Or slowly in the oven. Drying them this way also increases teh heat of the peppers. I am just about to start doing this myself with jalepenos, kung paos and cayannes.

Answer 6

I string mine on some type of twine and hang them. Or you can store them in a jar and leave the lid off and they dry.
