I recently learned about the process used in the making of sauerkraut.  A
process in which micro-organisms are selectively culled by the use of salt
addition, deprivation of oxygen, monitoring of temperature, and lowering of
pH.  Would a similar process work with peppers?  What would happen if I
shredde some habeneros, mixed with salt, and sealed it all in a crock? 
Does anybody have any recipes like this?
