Q: Good Morning Dave! 

I have only just discovered this site & it is wonderful!  I’m new at growing peppers & I need help. When I bought my plants they were labeled habaneros, but I have since been told they are serranos.  I didn’t expect them to really make it…but all 6 plants are producing wonderful little peppers.  My question is, NOW WHAT?!  I thought it would be fun to make a seasoning powder, since we grill a lot.  But how do I dry these little guys?  I guess here’s a second question:  Do you have a simple, for-beginners salsa recipe?  Thanks bunches.

A: Hello Jane:

For all the information on drying peppers, see http://www.fiery-foods.com/dave/drying.asp

For a basic salsa, I recommend Salsa Fresca, found here: http://www.fiery-foods.com/dave/fresh_chiles.asp

Good luck!
