This reminded me of a method that I sometimes use for freezing chiles. Dice
those puppies and fill an ice tray with the chiles. Then fill in the gaps
with water. Freeze.
This is really nice from a cooking perspective. You can just pop one out
and toss it right into whatever you're cooking. It's just water and chiles.

Subject: [CH] freezing fresh chiles
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).
