First harvest tonight, as it was looking very unhealthy. Eaten by gastropods, it was. The root, OTOH is divine. The pot absolutely packed with threads, and I am now looking for recipes to make sauce ready for rib of beef on Christams day. Fan bloody tastic stuff. My thanks to you and the good doctor. I shall raise a glass of the lovely Merlot I bought for Christmas dinner in thanks to you both. -- Catman MIB#14 SKoGA#6 TEAR#4 BOTAFOF#38 Apostle#21 COSOC#3 Tyger, Tyger Burning Bright (Remove rust to reply) 116 Giulietta 3.0l Sprint 1.7 145 2.0 Cloverleaf 156 V6 2.5 S2 Triumph Sprint ST 1050: It's blue, see. www.cuore-sportivo.co.uk
Scrape/peel the skin off to clean then grate finely and mix with just enough Hellmans mayo to bind. Store in jars in the fridge.
I had forgotten about mine. It was looking very robust just before the cold snap. Must check it out tomorrow. -- +----------------------------------------------------------------+ | Pete Fisher at Home: | | Voxan Roadster Gilera Nordwest * 2 Yamaha WR250Z | | Gilera GFR * 2 Moto Morini 2C/375 Morini 350 "Forgotten Error" | +----------------------------------------------------------------+
I have a little chili pepper bush in a largish earthen pot which is loaded with nice looking (and tasting) fruit. I've been harvesting as required but I can't see it all being used this side of the frosts [1]. I have about 15 2" peppers left. Anyway, harvest and storage - how to? [1] Jess: "Must we have chili in everything?" Me: "Don't you like the crumble?"
Personally I like swwet an sour chilli garlic sauce. Same weight of garlic as chilli. Process to desired consistency. Add vinegar and sugar to taste. Stick in sterilised jars and away you go. Wear rubber gloves.... Sounds wonderful. -- Catman MIB#14 SKoGA#6 TEAR#4 BOTAFOF#38 Apostle#21 COSOC#3 Tyger, Tyger Burning Bright (Remove rust to reply) 116 Giulietta 3.0l Sprint 1.7 145 2.0 Cloverleaf 156 V6 2.5 S2 Triumph Sprint ST 1050: It's blue, see. www.cuore-sportivo.co.uk
TBH I've never seen it go off. It never lasted long enough, but several months. If you're worried, get the whole thing up to just below boiling and use sterilised jars, and it should keep like jam. -- Catman MIB#14 SKoGA#6 TEAR#4 BOTAFOF#38 Apostle#21 COSOC#3 Tyger, Tyger Burning Bright (Remove rust to reply) 116 Giulietta 3.0l Sprint 1.7 145 2.0 Cloverleaf 156 V6 2.5 S2 Triumph Sprint ST 1050: It's blue, see. www.cuore-sportivo.co.uk

I'll tell her. We need to cull our Horseradish Alien some more, as it's invading the garden again. Anyone else want some? Be warned that it is *ferociously* strong.
*ding* yogurt pots make handy containers for portion sized amounts: line them with plastic bags and then transfer the bags to a larger container once they are frozen You'll get freezer burn on them if keeping for many months. For longer storage I'd cook them up with some tomato, herbs & onion to use as a base for a pizza or pasta sauce.
He's not wrong, but lovely with it. -- Catman MIB#14 SKoGA#6 TEAR#4 BOTAFOF#38 Apostle#21 COSOC#3 Tyger, Tyger Burning Bright (Remove rust to reply) 116 Giulietta 3.0l Sprint 1.7 145 2.0 Cloverleaf 156 V6 2.5 S2 Triumph Sprint ST 1050: It's blue, see. www.cuore-sportivo.co.uk
