Freeze Jalapenos

While we love jalapenos in salsa, we also like to jump start our day with some heat by adding a little bit of jalapeno in our eggs.  Based on this, I like to store jalapeno peppers either sliced or in halves so I can use them at a later date.

Prep Work for Storing:

1) Since jalapenos are thin skinned, you don’t have to char off the skin like poblanos.

2) Slice the jalapenos and remove the seed pods and the stems.  I would recommend using gloves for this step.

3) Individually freeze the jalapeno slices on a cookie sheet.

4) Freeze them in a single layer in an airtight container or bag.

What an easy to store!
