My favorite is cayenne. I like them canned and use the peppers and the juice (pepper sauce). The Pepper sauce is great on cooked greens and field peas. Back in my youth we lived on what we grew and a staple was field peas (purple hull, crowder, and others) that were dried. I did not like them but could tolerate them by doing as my Grandfather did. He would mash them and then stir pepper sauce in, and it was a big improvement. I like to eat the pickled peppers with certain foods, spaghetti being one and brown beans (pintos) another along with any type of cooked greens or cabbage. The past few years plants that are not hybrids are hard to come by and the hybrid is not as good. I like jalapenos for some things but my standby is cayenne. They can always be dried and ground for pepper flakes like at the pizza place. miles
+1!
My gardening skills are horrible. The one plant I've had great luck with, is the cayenne!
I slice the peppers, put them in a mason jar and top off with apple cider vinegar. My family laughs at me every time I open the fridge to take a drink of the juice!
Love the cayenne!
