Does anyone have any good recipes using cayenne peppers?!
I am a novice at herb gardening, I was told to grow cayenne peppers near the herbs to keep the insects away!. Now I have more cayenne peppers than I know what to do with!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
LOL! Dry them out and then chop in food processor, and use when a recipe calls for "dry crushed red pepper flakes!." Or, shove in a bottle, add hot vinegar, and make pepper-vinegar!. Great on mustard and turnip greens!.
Next year, plant marigolds!. Pretty to look at, bugs hate them, and you wont' be needing any cayenne peppers next year, either!Www@FoodAQ@Com
