Q:  Hi Dave,

My Scovie Award-winning Habanero & Cranberry Jelly uses fresh habaneros. Obviously, these aren’t available year-round. How many dried would you substitute? One for one?  How about using ground habanero powder?  Thanks for your advice.

A:  Hello Mike:

Yes, substitute 1 dried for each fresh one. Just rehydrate them in warm water.  You can use habanero powder at the rate of 1 teaspoon per pod.
