Hot pepper idea -- advice needed
So I like to grow hot peppers and this time of year, I harvest, dry them and grind them up in an old coffee grinder for use over the winter.
I have a bunch coming ripe now, including some ghosts. I normally split them (so they don't rot) string them up and hang them outside to dry. This week, however, it's all rain. Hung some in the kitchen today, but they started overpowering everyone, so that's not gonna fly. Right now, they're down in the cellar, next to the furnace. Should probably invest in a dehydrator but, in the meantime, what do you think of this: putting them in a paper bag and throwing them in the clothes dryer on low heat? I've tried the oven, but the fumes in the house are like pepper spray. Also tried gas grill, but it's still too hot and they cook. At least with the dryer, it vents to the outside. Thoughts?
