Here's a few options:
-You could bottle the whole fresh peppers in salt, sugar & vinegar. Let them pickle for a month or so and eat them use them whole as a garnish or on a relish tray.
-You could also make a puree' of the peppers, add in garlic, salt, vinegar & a little sugar to make a spicy chile paste.
-Try adding in some chopped red peppers (1/2 C.), fresh chopped garlic (2-3 cloves), Chinese style fermented black beans (1/2 C.) Note: You can use the black bean & garlic paste found in jars or find the fermented black beans only pre-packaged, whole in the Asian markets, just soak in water & drain to remove some of the salt) & 3 T. chili oil (also found in Asian markets). In a med. hot pan, add in a little peanut oil, saute the garlic quickly, add in all the remaining ingredients. Smash up the whole beans a little. Heat through, mix thoroughly and let cool down. Place in an empty clean jar or plastic air tight container. It's a great condiment...when eating Chinese food.
