When tabascos are unripe (yellow/green) they are crispy and nice for eating
out of hand or making whole-chile pickle that you want to be crispy when
you do eventually eat it; when tabascos are red, they are very soft and
mushy and great for mash-type uses, both fermented and fresh, but not IMHO
very nice for eating out of hand.  Your preferences may differ.

Get a good dehydrator, and cut your habaneros in half before placing into
the dehydrator.
