Peppers
come in a range of shapes, sizes and colors, from red cherry
peppers to yellow banana peppers.
For
the truly adventurous, there are hot peppers that range in
heat from mildly spicy to four-alarm types (handle these with
gloves -- really!).
If
you didn't have room for them in your garden this year, try
growing peppers in a container next year. More
Red
and green peppers are good source of Vitamin C. Green fruits
and vegetables like peppers contain many health-promoting
phytochemicals including lutein and indoles. They help protect
against certain cancers, help maintain vision health and promote
strong teeth and bones.
There
are plenty of fresh peppers available now. If you have extra
peppers, you can freeze them raw without blanching them first.

Hot
peppers will keep best if stored after they are dry. Thread
the peppers on a string to dry. Hang in a cool, dry place.
