In anticipation of the frost that came Friday night (and Saturday night, and Sunday night, and Monday night...I think winter is coming), I pulled up our pepper plants by the roots and hung them upside down inside with the peppers still on them. Left this way a couple days, they ripened up a bit more. Then I seeded the peppers, cut them into quarters, and packed them into freezer bags in handy quantities. Peppers freeze very nicely, and do not need blanching or any other sort of treatment. Hot peppers can even be frozen whole. No need to thaw before cooking, just chop as desired and toss them into whatever you are making.
