What we’re asking now is for some help from our readers on what to do with these peppers, as far as recipes go. For the habs, perhaps a hot sauce…but the poblanos are fair game for anything.

Keep it decent, people. Gotta be stuff we can take pictures of, y’know.

Send us your recipe or post it in the comments, and we’ll pick which one to use, make it, and take pictures of it. If we have enough suggestions, we’ll make it into a poll and have people vote on what we should make with these peppers.

This the interactive part of the process now. Send in your ideas!!
