Greetings fellow Chile-Heads,

    I've got a question for all of you.  Does anyone out there know of a
method of pickling peppers that will not bleach out the purple in ornamental
peppers?  I've harvested a lot of peppers over the past few weeks.  Most of
them are all sorts of Habaneros and Scotch Bonnets, but there are a lot of
pretty ornamentals, too.  I've tried preserving the purple ones mixed with
others for decoration, but the purple always fades.  The green, yellow,
orange, and red is always unaffected.  So far I've used vodka, and vinegar
with 5% acidity, both with no luck.  Does anyone know of a solution?

-Russell
