I have used basically the method described in the messages below  for
years, although my preference is to dice/chop the pods.  Much easier to cut
before freezing as they get a bit soggy after thawing.  I store in a large
Tupperware container after freezing.  Ready to go whenever my cooking
demands chiles.  Direct from freezer to heat (no puns here).
