Numex chillies - when are they ready and what do you do with them?

I believe i grew them once more for ornament than cooking. They go purple -> yellow -> orange -> red don't they? As they are quite smaall you could use them whole in curries to give an occasional 'hit' mouthful?  :blink:

I'm infusing some chilli vodka at the moment - and small chillies might have been a good idea here (as I'm too mean to give away large bottles of the stuff as presents - and small bottles don't accomodate big chillis very easily throught the necks...)

Cheers,
Balders
