Ideas for sweet green peppers

Posted by ajsmama 5b (NW CT) (My Page) on

I'm going to make some more salsa, and maybe try the Spaghetti Sauce without Meat. I have so many sweet peppers (about 10 gallons), not as many (by weight/volume) of hot peppers, those are going into pepper jelly.

So any ideas about what to do with green Corno di Toro and unripe Sweet Bananas? I've got dozens of jars of pickled peppers already in the basement. Freezer is filling up.

I was thinking some sweet (maybe throw in a few hot) pepper relish? How do you "grind" the veggies without an old-fashioned meat grinder? I have a FP with 1 shredding disk, a Victorio with pumpkin screen, and Foley with 3 different screens but the coarsest one isn't very coarse. Just hand-chop them finely?

Just chop, spread on cookie sheet, freeze, bag. Use by the handful in any cooking.

I hand chop for all relishes--pepper and cucumber. It really doesn't take that long (slice thin strips, then cut into dice). It becomes a zen-like thing to slice, then dice everything.

We like the texture way better than any kind of grind from any device (f.p., meat grinder, chopper, etc)
