The pride you feel when you know that you grew it.

10:16 Hi, there, sweet Phoebe!🐾♥️

The first thing I thought about was how Cayenne pepper makes me sneeze (more than ground black pepper) and there's no way I could use my dehydrator in the kitchen to dry it. Outdoors is a great option 👍🏾👍🏾

Thanks kind sir. We shall have to visit your church sometime.

"Self mobile kitchen mat" ROFL! Thanks for the video. Mortar and Pestle is high on my list of items I really need. I'm growing some crops specifically for their seasoning use (like cayenne!)

I Do the same thing with sweet salad peppers . It makes the best sweet paprika !

I picked up a coffee grinder at a Goodwill. Works good.

Those new to dehydrating - dehydrate hot peppers in a room with ventilation!

I have an older dehydrator still works very well. And I have a bullet that I only use on peppers.

Peppers are so good if you can sprinkle a little powder into anything it's just better.

That looks like 👍 an easy thing with that dehydrator! I'm gonna try it!

I do jerkey and dehdrate in the winter. those heat up the kitchen.

Thanks for the info I have never done this but I'm thinking of it now 🤠🤠🤠

pretty cool stuff

A bit of proactive pruning and 3-foot stakes kept my cayenne peppers from touching the ground. At least until the local fox made a home amongst them and they got pushed over 🤨

I made my own crushed pepper flakes for the first time last year - used my #SingleSeedChallenge2021 Chinese 5-color pepper pods. OMG, I never realized how much flavor peppers had - I always thought it was just the heat! I am growing about 25 different hot pepper varieties this year. They are very beautiful plants too. See what the #SingleSeedChallenge2021 inspired!?!! Thank you!

Yeah doing the coffee grinder a lot faster. But be careful when you do Carolina reapers or Ghost Pepper with it. It's like having pepper spray everywhere. Hahaha . I still use a coffee grinder though I just try to let the dust settle before I open it.

Nice demonstration, Scott. I like to let my cayenne peppers air dry naturally and then make powder or flakes at the end of year.

Once the cayennes are powdered, you can put one inch of the powder in a pint jar and fill to top with avocado oil, or the oil of your choice. Stir to blend then cover with a lid that won’t rust. Shake every day to blend the powder in as it settles to the bottom. After a month or two, decant the oil (I do 2 months). Oil will be red and can stain fabrics. Wonderful in stirfries, omelettes and add a few drops to whatever you want-go easy on it to test how hot you like. I saw a 6 oz bottle of cayenne oil at a store and they wanted almost $14 for it. Little bottle! And I just made 16 oz for next to nothing. Just an idea.

Me too! Great dehydrator. Bought it primarily to make beef jerky. Found out how great it works for garden goods as well. Indeed. I love it.

Thanks for the DIY! I learned something new because I had no idea that hot/spicy peppers ever attracted pests.

Great! Thanks I've never made my own cayene powder, but I will now! (I have made my own turmeric powder though and it is delicious)

Perfect timing for this video. I'm growing cayennes for the first time this season. My main reason is to try making cayenne pepper powder. Great info! Thanks Scott.

Thanks, I just ordered myself this dehydrator! I dried my cayennes hanging in a ristra in the kitchen last year and that works fine, but I'm growing 3 Principe de Borghese tomatoes this year, the best for sun dried tomatoes, and it's just not hot enough here to sun dry. I'm thinking my problem will now be solved. Love your channel!

I'm thinking of doing that with many of the peppers I'm growing this year. Gotta love Phoebe!

we made some mystery pepper powder last year from supposedly sweet peppers that were anything but. Turned out delicious. Thank you for the video and more ideas

That's fantastic! I do not like hots, but my husband does. This might convince me to make him some home grown shakers. Thanks for the inspiration! I will definitely use gloves and open all the windows! Thanks for advice.

I love the farm to table content! I would appreciate if you talked about how you clean the produce before processing. I had a rough time with my lettuce and spinach. I was doing vinegar water soaks, and it seemed too harsh.

How fun! I want to try jalapeno powder this year. Oh - and love the sneak peek of your cukes "soon to be" to be pickles. Max pack? Thank you!

I was wondering what brand your dehydrator is. I want to dry and grind my favorite seasonings but need a reasonably priced dehydrator. Enjoyed your video. So easy to follow.

If Cayenne was a little hotter it would be perfect. 😎

Hm

I know you've been told you look like Glen Beck are you his twin or related to him? The resemblance is crazy. LOL and The red pepper powder will last forever and way stronger than store bought be careful not to smell it .

I was just wondering how your method and mine differed. I let my peppers dry out whole sitting whole in a strainer on my kitchen counter. As they dry out I pull the completely dry one from the ones that are still moist. (Usually because they were picked at a later date.) I then put the dry ones in a separate ventilated container. Then blend whenever I wanted to, generally at the end of the growing season. I just cut the tops off and blend whole in a dedicated spice(coffee) blender. I would assume if it has bugs they would have lived it their life cycle and erupted from the fruit, correct?

@ScottHead

I did that way a few years ago, just let them dry naturally. As for the bugs, yes they probably would have vacated but the caterpillars leave their frass behind, yuck.

Thanks!! So what do wire worms look like??

They look like orange or tan segmented wires with a little brown head.

I always leave my peppers lay out and dry. Never tried to dehydrate them. I have one that I've used for almost 20 years to make deer jerky on. In my freezer I have a pint jar full of course ground cayenne and a pint jar of fine ground cayenne. Love the stuff but don't eat too much. It will clean you out, unpleasantly.

Angie- as Scott mentioned, the sink is composite, granite composite. We have really enjoyed it. Like any sink it requires some care. A little buffing, cleaning, and conditioning with food grade oil makes it shine. It does have some chinks and divots from wear but that’s to be expected with stone. Hope that helps.

Question with your dehydrator... (I have an older version of the "Nesco American Harvest dehydrator", and this one- "shuts off/turns on" on its own..) The only reason I was wondering, is I'm looking at another one for surface area/room. But what I have noticed with others is that they don't dehydrate, but rather COOK the herbs, plant matter, medicinal plants/fungi. If you know of any that can change temps/have adjustable Temps (or cycle through, "on for 30 mins, off for 30 mins, etc") I'd greatly appreciate any advice/ tips!

@ScottHead
