Yup, freezing works really well. I froze a bunch of jalapeno last year.

I will be growing a whole pack of Habonero seeds this season. I just started some of the seeds being they take so long to grow. I want to dry most of them, but I will be freezing some. It really does keep them like the day you harvested them in the freezer!

Speaking of freezing, has anyone ever tried germinating seed from a frozen pod?

I'm trying it now, not sure if it's going to work but I have alot of fish and chinese five color peppers frozen and thought it's worth a shot.

Rather than coating the peps for chopping, you can just dip your handling fingers in oil. I keep a small bowl nearby when handling large amounts. Works good and a lot less messy.

I really like the idea of oiling before freezing, though. I'll have to try it. Thanks.
