The first step to drying chili peppers is to always select quality chili pe=
ppers for drying. Get rid of any peppers with signs of molds, cuts, spots o=
r any other blemishes. This is because they lack freshness and flavor. The =
peppers to be used must be fresh and full color such as the red-hot chili p=
epper. The fresher they are, the more flavor you get.

Second step is to thoroughly wash and clean your peppers to remove dirt col=
lected during harvesting. You can wash them in a colander and then allow th=
em to completely dry on a tray. Using a cooling rack also makes them dry fa=
ster.

Like the name suggests, you literally use a string to dry your chili pepper=
s. You will need a needle and thread and make a loop from which the peppers=
 will hang. Pass the thread through the green cap of the pepper.

The first step is to preheat your oven to 100-135 degrees Fahrenheit (-92.7=
8 C). You must dry the chili peppers on very low heat. Next, cut the pepper=
s lengthwise, in halves or quarters. This is to expose the fleshy bits of t=
he peppers which need drying in the oven.

Sun drying is the best way to dry chili peppers during the summer weather. =
All you need is to coat the peppers with some oil and lay them flat on a la=
rge tray. You can also substitute the tray with a cookie sheet. Ensure that=
 all the peppers are well spaced, cover with a thin mesh or towel. Take the=
m to dry in the sun. The covering will protect the peppers from birds and i=
nsects. Turn the peppers every couple of days. This allows every angle of t=
he peppers to receive sunlight.

In 1-2 weeks, the peppers should have dried out completely. Retrieve them a=
nd store in an air-tight jar. These peppers can be preserved for over a yea=
r if stored in an area free of moisture. Always store your peppers in a coo=
l and dark area for increased shelf life.

Depending on size of your peppers, spread them evenly on the tray. Do not o=
vercrowd them because they will not get enough air circulation. Always put =
up the dehydrator in a well - ventilated room for best results. Place the t=
emperature at 135-145 degrees. Leave the peppers to dry for 8-12 hours. Con=
stantly keep checking as not all of them will dry at the same time. The big=
ger ones will take longer so extract the dried ones and leave the rest to d=
ry.



During dehydration, the dry hot chili pepper seeds collect at the bottom. T=
hese seeds should never be thrown away. You can incorporate them into the g=
round pepper or simply plant them. The seeds are also a common ingredient u=
sed to spice stews and meat dishes.
