One thing you can make with the ajvarski (sp) peppers is Ajvar, a Czech roasted red pepper and eggplant spread. Mix 3.3lb roast red peppers with 2.2lb roasted eggplant, ~6 chopped hot chilies, ~6 crushed cloves of garlic, ~1.5 tsp salt, black pepper, 1/3 cup olive oil, 2 tbsp red wine vinegar. All the flavors are to taste. The spread is great on bread as a dip, as a sandwich spread, as a pasta sauce, as topping on grilled chicken, etc... I hope you try this and enjoy.
Try Big Bertha Peppers. They are slow to start but, once they do they take off . When it gets cold they can be dug up and moved inside, They will keep growing and replanted out side next year, they will keep going.
I got the chocolate bells from Bakers Creek. Turns out they are a mini pepper but with the best flavor. I also got the no heat Habanero which are wonderful.I as well do not want to depend on the grocery store and trying to grow all we can plus go to organic pick your own farms a few times during the season. God's blessing to you and yours.
I got them from Baker Creek also. The first 4 or 5 were regular size for me and then the rest were mini. I was so confused. I thought it was a result of cross pollination. It is a very prolific plant though. I only planted one and I really like it. Will definitely plant again next year.
Those were the only bells I planted in that area so I think that is the way they are to be. The taste is wonderful. Love when I can harvest food I grew. God bless you
Used to nice jalapeño salad from a local restaurant. Bought a handful jalapeño the other day and cut them for the deep freezer. When I washed my hands I started burning and it kept on for two days. Now I understand Wil look out for seeds.
OH Sarah I am a failure but am going to try again & probably just keep trying- I am unsure of what I am doing wrong at this stage but persistence will win. Your peppers look fabulous. Cheers Denise - Australia
Thank you for the review. We have to grow our peppers in the greenhouse hear in the north, we have grown King of the north here for years. This year we're branching out and trying a bunch of different ones.
Hi Sarah! Too cool😄 about your crossed pepper- you didn't say how spicy they are? Hope they come back true for you. Maybe you can patent & sell those seeds!
Found this very interesting. Never gave any thought to the damage to my peppers that it is the variety . Thank you for pointing that out.. I have bought the mini colored bags of bells from Wal mart. I’ve saved the seeds. They do grow and I’ve had good luck . Glad to hear your going to show how you roast and prepare your peppers. Thanks and God Bless You and your Family .
We have grown lemon drop for years...a big hit with the local Chinese restaurants...I trade the peppers for meals! They come up volunteer each year and are one of the last to turn yellow and get that full citrus/sugar flavor. They dry well, but don't keep the pretty yellow color. They are almost as hot as a Habanero pepper. The plants are huge producers of small bright yellow wonderful peppers. They turn purple when it gets cold at night...and are even more attractive. We fill bowls with all the colors of peppers in the fall and they look like huge bouquets of flowers for weeks! Love peppers...
My daughter makes the cowboy candy and i just love it . She also cans just the syrup from the cowboy candy so you can pour it over eggs anything and it too is great. I like just a little heat but, i love sweet. And when i first take a sip of the syrup it is sweet, very sweet but, once you swallow WOW, the heat is there. She made so much everyone had both for Christmas in a pretty little jar with twine decorating it. It was so pretty didn't want to open. lol
I just watched your episode where you tied up Tomato plants with cotton string which you get at walmart in the kitchen department. Head to the yarn section and get cotton yarn. More for your money and works great
I had the same issue with my Golden Cal Wonders. They are super tasty though and we really enjoyed them (after I cut out the bad spots). I wondered what the deal is with them and why they get the rotten spots so easily? I really thought it was something I did accidentally.
Here we take peppers and slice them into 1" slices, toss into pan ( I use dutch oven) with oil and butter and fry them up with a little garlic if you like. When limp, pile them into a " torpedo " roll that has been buttered, sprinkle with salt and eat. YUM. You can sprinkle parmesan cheese on it if you like. I used green bells for this.
My mother loved a thick bell pepper stuffed with sausage and onions topped with cheese and she would stuff tomatoes too. The smell from the oven would fill the house and your mouth would water.
You never know what you are going to get when you plant crosses....but they can be stabilized get as many plants as you can and gradually you can pick the traits you want and plant. keep all the plants separate ..It may take a few years but it can be done..Actually mild Jalapenos are a bell jalapeno cross.
Re: the cross of emerald & jalapeño. Each year I save one or two of my pepper plants and winter them over as a house plant. Just before a predicted frost, I will severely prune the pepper to about 3 or 4 inches, leaving only a few stalks. Pot them and keep them near a window with daily turning and water. In just a week or two, the peppers are sending out new growth. Yes, we will harvest peppers over the winter. Come spring, transplant to the garden. This will work for a few years. But, I hope your seeds are a true cross and will bear the parent characteristics. I live in the mountains of central Virginia-- Really enjoy your channel. Gene
Hello! Can you help me? Can I plant all kinds of pepper from the fruit from the store? Can I plant both the triangular and the square (I've heard that they are male and female fruits) ones? Thanks 🙏
Oh Sarah! Your enthusiasm for peppers is so sincere and hearfelt. Sigh! I hate peppers! LOL! I have tried believe me, especially the yellow, orange and red. But they cause stomach upset and...burps. Can't do! But I love your spirit! However, I am on the edge of my seat for the same kind of vid for your tomatoes!!! Give me a salt shaker and a couple slices of nice crusty buttered bread and any kind of tomato, my idea of heaven.
You have to try the chocolate peppers. They taste good and make some delicious salsas, a little spicy but I like my salsa spicy. You can harvest before they change colors and they aren't so spicy.
Oh my! Green, Yellow, Red and Purple Peppers! Hot and Spicy🌶️ or Sweet and deliciously Not-A-Peno🌶️ I'm going to have to try finding these Not a peno peppers!
I've never had luck growing peppers, small plants with poor production. And don't usually get color even though zone 7. 😕. Maybe you have developed a new variety with your super sized jalapeno plant! If you're able to grow more next year, think about propagating for seed sales. 😃❤️
I love bell peppers too Sarah. Since I don't own a back yard or homestead (yet) I live in an apartment and I usually buy my peppers from the supermarket. I usually buy green and red and when I want to splurge I'll treat myself to an orange or yellow bell pepper when I want a variety of color. Here where I live jalepenos are plentiful to buy along with habaneros and some times scotch bonnet but that's about it for spicy fresh peppers. I also like serrano peppers which aren't spicy but sort of mild and has a bit of sweetness. Keep us updated about those paprika peppers; I'd love to see you make paprika from them.
I backtracked to comment here after my first season of growing colored bells. I tried Flavorburst Yellow Bells and have had pretty good luck here in East TN. I also grew the same Northern King red with good results. Tried a purple with mixed results. Definitely want to try that roasting red.
Go visit Hungary, if you want to learn all about peppers or real paprika! It is paradise for peppers. by the way we eat most of them raw, besides pickling them.
Peppers are my favorite as well. This was very informative. Thanks. I love drying and fermenting peppers. I’ve been experimenting with paprika peppers as well and haven’t had a ton of luck. I’m trying sheepnose and one I shortened to PASS from baker creek. I grow lemon drop and pickle them. I grow peach sugar rich to ferment and I love them. Spicier than a jalapeño but a really nice sweet flavor as well. I’m going to make a sauce with them this year. Black Hungarian is my favorite new pepper this year. Very prolific and I think it will ferment well. I have no luck with colored bells. Ever! I run into the same issues as you do. I’m going to try the lilac next year.
Red chili peppers = Sambal Oelek! I had no idea what to do with all those red chili peppers until i found the recipe for sambal oelek - if you like sirachi or spicy relish you have to try it! Next year I'm growing 10 plants as all of our friends want some. PS - I am giving up on colored bells...
Sarah, do you make pepper jelly? Used to use mint jelly with my lamb chops but since I have tried pepper jelly............I love it and now I have a little lamb with my pepper jelly.
Have you guys tried selling finished products at the farmers market? Good way to increase item profit with a bit of sweat equity. :) I would imagine some of your pepper sauces and fermented/pickled peppers would be a hit!
Have you tried the red lipstick bell pepper from baker creek so yummy and sweet and high yield but I smaller tapered pepper. Would love to see videos how you made Tabasco sauce/vinegar and preserved all them. always love all your content so informative🤩
For some reason bell peppers do not seem to grow that well down hear in Florida. I have grown Cubenelle peppers as an alternative with great success. Cubanelle peopers are awesome, if you have not grown them you should give them a shot
Regarding 14:21 - I'm asking this question in at the end of May, 2023 (the video is from August 2019): How did the seeds work out from your pleasant cross-pollination accident?
Often, just tomato news. Thanks for spotlights on peppers as perhaps my favorite reason for gardening I'm just making pepper jelly a couple of years. don't want to live without pepper jelly anymore. I'm trying emeral bells so much love your showing them we like thick walls and box shape as I want stuff bell's with pianist rice and burger 5 days a week all summer if possible. Hungarian reds you can try A few years back I tried 14 type and definitely had a thick wall dark green and heavy blocky bell pepper but lost its ID tag.Believe maybe Red Knight but not sure. And outstanding delicious it got WOWs by us.Yes bells are not equal so goes our hunting California Wonder are good but still looking. King of The North sounds fair that emeral giant I'm probably going to love it and 70 percent of my bells next season Thanks
I love peppers - as long as they are raw. As a child I hated peppers any which way. Then I tried one straight from the plant and was converted to a raw pepper person. I like using the colored varieties in my macaroni salad; everyone calls it 'confetti salad'.
I grew 3 lemon drops last year & had enough pepper powder to fill two 4 oz jars (I gave one to my daughter) plus lots of fresh & frozen. I'm interested to hear what other paprika peppers you're going to try next year. I didn't get my Alma seeds so I still need to try those. My Boldogs are just starting to turn red & I can't wait to see how they compare to the flavor of Feher Ozon. My Leutschauer are taking their time turning red, like the Feher Ozon. Did you have any luck with the Boldog?
I know you use your gardens for income, so what I need to know is how you continue through the fall and winter months. Do you continue to sale at a farmers in the colder climates?
I would love to get seeds from your giant jalapeno! We love heat and stuffed peppers so that would make a perfect addition to my garden. I am also looking for notapeno seeds as I can't find them in Ontario, Canada. Please let me know how we can make this happen. PS your garden looks amazing!
@@LivingTraditionsHomestead ill have to try them I'm a pretty new Gardener but pretty much stopped with California wonder because they seemed to work this year my warm season plants shot out ugly leaves early and my peppers were behind tomatoes turned out my bells are small and ugly it was cool and wet this spring
I would like to try growing some of the peppers that you said were "agvarsty?" but, how do you spell the name of it? By the way, I like all of your videos that I have watched so far.
I have 5 plants and everyday I have to remove the tiny pearl colored eggs from the leaves that the HORNWORM moth lays EVERY night even on tomato leaves..... black light is awesome to remove the actual worms but the little pearl eggs are a nightmare! The black worms tiny and large eat the fruit too..... do you have problems with them eating leaves and damaging the peppers too?
Loved this pepper video. You are so informative about peppers. Unfortunately I live in YUMA, AZ. And not able to grow them. But I do want to grow the “Notapeño” pepper, but as I’ve told you the other day, do not know where to get the seeds for them. I went to the Baker Creek site, but no peppers 🌶 of that name were there. If you could send me some seeds of yours, I will gladly pay you for them. If you would, please inform me, and I will give you my information as to my address, etc. thank you again, and God Bkess 🙏🏻
Try searching Nadapeno on the Baker Creek website. I grew peppers in Phoenix on the east side of our block wall. They had morning sun and afternoon shade. They did the best there.
Not sure if Kevin or Sarah will get a chance to see this but I thought I'd chimed in and direct you to some of their other videos where they go over exactly what they bought and where they bought it from. I believe it's Growers Solutions. Hope that helps! Just look through their videos or playlists and I'm sure you'll find it.
We pick our coloured peppers as soon as they start to turn from green - the tiniest spot of colour - and let them ripen in a cool room - they don't deteriorate if we make sure they are dry when we pick them and they taste great. I never, ever use green peppers - not a flavour we enjoy at all, but the coloured ones are a favourite for all!
I plant my sweet peppers with 2' between each. Plenty of airflow, and minimal problems. Organic near Buffalo, NY. Gotta wait till the end of August- sometimes Sept.... But worth it. Growing Yellow Monster, Ozark red and Orange bell from Baker creek. All are doing well!
If you can re-grow your crossed jalapeno and bell pepper variety again next year, you should give it a name! There are many of us, including me, who would love to get some seeds if they stay true to their cross. Peppers are like tomatoes in that they will continue to ripen off the vine. It seems to me that my peppers ripen faster and better when they are stored in a box with some green tomatoes in a cool temperature about 65 to 70 degrees. So your unripe green peppers picked with just a hint of color will ripen to those orange and red colors we all love so much in just a few weeks.
Well you better not get those peppers mixed up or your youngest will be very unhappy. We grow Hungarian sweet peppers for paprika down here, Capsicum annuum, I don't know if they'll grow in your climate. If you have extra of those cross breed between the jalapeno and the bell pepper I would love to have some for seed. I will pay for them, and pay for shipping. I can isolate them so that they will only pollinate each other. your garden is absolutely beautiful, and I know that I'm going on and on so, God bless you and Kevin and the girls. Jimmy
I will do the same Sarah !!! I want some of those seeds !!! They look so good to make (CHILE RELLENOS ) with... I will buy and pay for shipping . Just a few seeds will do !
It's possible that the issues you experienced with the yellow and orange peppers are due to calcium deficiency. I noticed a little wrinkling on your leaves which is usually a sign of that. Thanks for this review. It's awesome.
sarah, good morning! thank you for such an informative video!! i am already planning my garden for next year! i too have a passion for peppers!! yours look absolutely beautiful!! have a great day!!
Great video as always. My husband and I love all flavors of bell peppers. Good to know about the emerald giant. The roasting red pepper is gorgeous. I am having pepper envy:)
Sarah, the Jamaican Hot Yellow peppers are great when sweet pickled. They are pretty warm but when balanced with honey pickling the are delicious. They also usually produce massive amounts of peppers (one plant is usually enough). Tepin hot pepper are also very good (extreme heat). Their heat is highly dependent on how much you water them(barely water them and they give a ghost pepper a run for the money). Their best use is to feed to poultry. In Mexico the turkeys eat them for coyote protection. The peppers give the meat a great spicy (warm) flavor.
This was a VERY informative vid! Love the detail and reasons and if you would grow it again. Would like to hear it about all your plants. Thanks so much for sharing.
Sarah would you share your tobasco recipe? And where did you get that great hat? All I've found are too floppy to do me any good. I just love all your videos and look forward to them each morning getting ready for work. Puts me in a good mood and is relaxing.
If u blanch the pepper leaves u can eat them. Also freeze them after blanching. Try it. YOU CANNOT EAT THEM WITHOUT BLANCHING! Soy sauce, red pepper, sesame oil and sesame seeds, black pepper, green onions.
Interesting that you chose Emerald Giant over California Wonder. I'll try a batch next season, but California Wonder has just been a phenom of a producer for me the last 4 years. Great peppers though, keep it up!
Fresno Chili peppers are my favorite. I saved seeds from some I bought at a grocery store last year, I got 100% germination.
One thing you can make with the ajvarski (sp) peppers is Ajvar, a Czech roasted red pepper and eggplant spread. Mix 3.3lb roast red peppers with 2.2lb roasted eggplant, ~6 chopped hot chilies, ~6 crushed cloves of garlic, ~1.5 tsp salt, black pepper, 1/3 cup olive oil, 2 tbsp red wine vinegar. All the flavors are to taste. The spread is great on bread as a dip, as a sandwich spread, as a pasta sauce, as topping on grilled chicken, etc... I hope you try this and enjoy.
Ajvar is not Czech though. It’s a Balkan traditional condiment.
@@cangel201 I was given my recipe by someone from the CZ Republic, so that was my assumption. Thank you for correcting me.
Wish my peppers looked as good as yours. My tomatoes and peppers are just beginning.
Try Big Bertha Peppers. They are slow to start but, once they do they take off . When it gets cold they can be dug up and moved inside, They will keep growing and replanted out side next year, they will keep going.
What a beautiful yield on all your peppers. I am learning new things each day. Thank you for sharing this.
I got the chocolate bells from Bakers Creek. Turns out they are a mini pepper but with the best flavor.

Great. Captive.
Thank you for the review. We have to grow our peppers in the greenhouse hear in the north, we have grown King of the north here for years. This year we're branching out and trying a bunch of different ones.
Hi Sarah! Too cool😄 about your crossed pepper- you didn't say how spicy they are? Hope they come back true for you. Maybe you can patent & sell those seeds!
A very informative pepper "primer"!
Thanks for a great video! GOD bless
I can not wait to try the nadapeño, I will be ordering seeds for next year.
I love how you explain things. Id like you to share you tomatoes experience

Love watching your videos! It's 3am here in Oregon and I'm canning strawberry jam .
Yummy
3 am. Good lord. I wake up 4.30 am. Thought that was early. 😉
Haven't gone to bed yet? That's my modus operandi...
I planted Napapeno's this year. So excited to try them. They are coming on just now. Thanks for the reviews. Good information to have on hand.

Chili relleno! Cheese/pork stuffed breaded peppers that are air fried. Oooh pickled banana peppers! 😋!
Jalapeno plants near your sweet peppers can create hot peppers in your sweets,
I had the same issue with my Golden Cal Wonders. They are super tasty though and we really enjoyed them (after I cut out the bad spots). I wondered what the deal is with them and why they get the rotten spots so easily? I really thought it was something I did accidentally.

I know you use your gardens for income, so what I need to know is how you continue through the fall and winter months. Do you continue to sale at a farmers in the colder climates?
Note to peeps who think the Adjvarski peppers are something special. They taste like a bell pepper, nothing out of the ordinary
Where do you find the heavy landscape fabric this is what I want do next year to get rid of the weeds for my pepper rows
Can you share links to the peppers you talked about?

Did you ever find the notapeno seeds? From BC and looking for them as well.
What do fertilize with and is it in your drip system? Thanks! Love watching you.
Have u done California wonder bells? They work well for me except for this year pretty small
I have. I like the Emerald Giants better.

Loved this pepper video. You are so informative about peppers. Unfortunately I live in YUMA, AZ. And not able to grow them. But I do want to grow the “Notapeño” pepper, but as I’ve told you the other day, do not know where to get the seeds for them. I went to the Baker Creek site, but no peppers 🌶 of that name were there. If you could send me some seeds of yours, I will gladly pay you for them. If you would, please inform me, and I will give you my information as to my address, etc. thank you again, and God Bkess 🙏🏻
Try searching Nadapeno on the Baker Creek website. I grew peppers in Phoenix on the east side of our block wall. They had morning sun and afternoon shade. They did the best there.
What is the name of the red roasting peppers? I couln't understand you. Was it ad varsi?
Same for the Paprika peppers. What did you call it. I would appreciate it so much if you would write these names out for me.
The paprika is Feher Ozon and the red roaster is Aj Varski.
@@LivingTraditionsHomestead thank you for spelling those out.
What type of fabric is in your garden?
Not sure if Kevin or Sarah will get a chance to see this but I thought I'd chimed in and direct you to some of their other videos where they go over exactly what they bought and where they bought it from. I believe it's Growers Solutions. Hope that helps! Just look through their videos or playlists and I'm sure you'll find it.
Thanks! I kept thinking garden solutions which didn’t get me far!
What does it taste like?
Where can I order a Blessed tee shirt? Thanks
Those colored bell peppers may be better in a greenhouse were the environment can be controlled more
Big emerald jalapeño?
Do you water your plants? Or allow Mother Nature water them?
We mostly rely on the rain but have drip irrigation for when it’s dry.
But what do you do with all those peppers?
Sarah, I would Love your recipe for your Chili Powder, or Taco Seasoning. Want to plan which peppers to grow next year. Love your garden!
Great video, very informative. Thank you for all you do and the lives you have touched in the homesteading community. May God bless you and yours.
I agree! I was thinking the same thing! lol
Would be interesting
Would love to learn also
Here in the Balkans we have a traditional dish called Ajvar. It is made of paprika called Ajvarka, and I think that is origin of Aivarski pepper name.
We pick our coloured peppers as soon as they start to turn from green - the tiniest spot of colour - and let them ripen in a cool room - they don't deteriorate if we make sure they are dry when we pick them and they taste great. I never, ever use green peppers - not a flavour we enjoy at all, but the coloured ones are a favourite for all!

Thank you for that tip. I can't stand the taste of green peppers (they taste like soap) but I love colored peppers.
I plant my sweet peppers with 2' between each. Plenty of airflow, and minimal problems. Organic near Buffalo, NY. Gotta wait till the end of August- sometimes Sept.... But worth it. Growing Yellow Monster, Ozark red and Orange bell from Baker creek. All are doing well!
I do the same thing
Exactly what I do as well :)
I had the same issue in the UK. I found cutting half the leaves out and spray with magnesium worked. It's worth a try on some. Good luck 👍
I had the same results only on my plants with heavy leaf production other plants with less leaves ripen much faster
Say mine did not grow big enough or ripen .I bought nadepenos banana peppers and Romano? Long red sweet peppers 🌶
If you can re-grow your crossed jalapeno and bell pepper variety again next year, you should give it a name! There are many of us, including me, who would love to get some seeds if they stay true to their cross.
Peppers are like tomatoes in that they will continue to ripen off the vine. It seems to me that my peppers ripen faster and better when they are stored in a box with some green tomatoes in a cool temperature about 65 to 70 degrees. So your unripe green peppers picked with just a hint of color will ripen to those orange and red colors we all love so much in just a few weeks.
Thanks!
Well you better not get those peppers mixed up or your youngest will be very unhappy. We grow Hungarian sweet peppers for paprika down here, Capsicum annuum, I don't know if they'll grow in your climate. If you have extra of those cross breed between the jalapeno and the bell pepper I would love to have some for seed. I will pay for them, and pay for shipping. I can isolate them so that they will only pollinate each other. your garden is absolutely beautiful, and I know that I'm going on and on so, God bless you and Kevin and the girls.

I will do the same Sarah !!! I want some of those seeds !!! They look so good to make (CHILE RELLENOS ) with... I will buy and pay for shipping . Just a few seeds will do !
Me too Sarah, and the red long peppers. I will also pay for s/h.

Please share your source for the unpronounceable yellow pepper at 20:39 toward the end of this video. TY.
It's possible that the issues you experienced with the yellow and orange peppers are due to calcium deficiency. I noticed a little wrinkling on your leaves which is usually a sign of that. Thanks for this review. It's awesome.
What about using a sun cloth over the colored peppers which aren't fairing well?
sarah, good morning! thank you for such an informative video!! i am already planning my garden for next year! i too have a passion for peppers!! yours look absolutely beautiful!! have a great day!!
Great video as always. My husband and I love all flavors of bell peppers. Good to know about the emerald giant. The roasting red pepper is gorgeous. I am having pepper envy:)
Sarah, the Jamaican Hot Yellow peppers are great when sweet pickled. They are pretty warm but when balanced with honey pickling the are delicious. They also usually produce massive amounts of peppers (one plant is usually enough). Tepin hot pepper are also very good (extreme heat). Their heat is highly dependent on how much you water them(barely water them and they give a ghost pepper a run for the money). Their best use is to feed to poultry. In Mexico the turkeys eat them for coyote protection. The peppers give the meat a great spicy (warm) flavor.
How to you spell the name of the 1st red roasting peppers after the Lilac pepper you mention
Diana Williams-Coe the Ajvarski pepper?
Diana Williams-Coe i think thats what shes saying ☺️
This was a VERY informative vid! Love the detail and reasons and if you would grow it again. Would like to hear it about all your plants.
Thanks so much for sharing.
Sarah would you share your tobasco recipe? And where did you get that great hat? All I've found are too floppy to do me any good. I just love all your videos and look forward to them each morning getting ready for work. Puts me in a good mood and is relaxing.
I asked about her hat a few weeks ago too. She said it was Sloggers on Amazon. I got myself one and really love it!
It's so exciting to see how excited you are over your peppers. Sarah you're the pepper lady for sure and for certain. 🌻✈️🇺🇸🙏💙
If u blanch the pepper leaves u can eat them. Also freeze them after blanching. Try it. YOU CANNOT EAT THEM WITHOUT BLANCHING! Soy sauce, red pepper, sesame oil and sesame seeds, black pepper, green onions.
Interesting that you chose Emerald Giant over California Wonder. I'll try a batch next season, but California Wonder has just been a phenom of a producer for me the last 4 years. Great peppers though, keep it up!
