Freezing Habaneros?

i dont know if this is the right way but i have frozen some chili's whole and then when i want to use them, get them out the freezer leave them for a couple minutes and thne chop them - find them easy to chop that way - i use the stalk if its still intact as a sort of grab rail  i keep hold of the seeds and check how hot the dish is first before adding them

i think with most chili's gloves are a sensible idea if you are prone to itching or poking yourself in the eye (i am a very itchy person and have been caught out too many times now to take the risk)

and if you dry them keep nose well away from the powder 

have frozen some chopped in ice cubes before too - that works quite well, when i run out of chili's i buy the reduced ones from the supermarket and freeze them

wont run out this year tho - hubby taken it upon himself to grow a chili mountain

I didn't wear gloves last year when i chopped chillies.....just remembered not to rub eyes/nose/lips or go to loo until hands and nails scrubbed
I chopped mine up and froze em, without seeds.....found out just how hot they were after first stir fry
Going to dry them on a string this year as there's less room in the freezer!
