how can i preserve my peppres from my garden?

Answer 1

1-You can submerge whole in vegetable oil in an air tight container, like an old jelly jar that the lid still closes tightly.
2-lengthy pickling process usually done together with eggplant.
Start by slicing veggies.
In air tight container start layering veggies, along with seasonings,(usually minced garlic).
Salt needs to be added between layers, and use something to squeeze the veggies while holding the jar upside down to get out excess moisture.
Keep adding layers, salt and squeezing until jar is full.
Fill jar with vinegar and let stand at least 1/2 hour. More is OK.
Drain out and squeeze out vinegar and fill with vegetable oil
Install lid write date on it and store away.
Has been know to last more than 2 years without pasteurization.
Once the jar is opened for the first time since packing, finish it within a few weeks to a month.

EDIT:
Storage should be in a cool dry place where the tempurature stays fairly constant year around, like a basement.

Answer 2

You may can them. I cut up bell peppers and freeze them in a storage bag. Then I can grab what I need when cooking. Some people hang hot peppers from a string and dry them out for future use.

Answer 3

we pickle ours any jar that closes airtight will do. Buy pickling spice to add in,you can also add silver onions,garlic,olives they will add a different flavor.All you have to do is wash the peppers and stuff as many in the jar without bruising them too much,add the pickling spice and fill up with vinegar,then close the jar (Canning jars do work best),date it and store in cabinets or pantry. All our friends are addicted to them plus if sealed airtight they will keep their colors! Enjoy!

Answer 4
