What is the best way to freeze peppers? I started making chow chow and planted a garden (hot and sweet peppers) to support this. In the past, I’ve just dropped the peppers whole in a ziplock bag in the freezer and removed air by hand. I was told that the seeds will turn brown which I noticed too.

Ideally I’d like to make 1-2 large batches after the summer/growing ends.

The only peppers I tend to save for later use are bell peppers. I'll simply dice them up and put them in smaller type sandwich bags for individual servings to use when cooking and put those bags into a gallon freezer bag for something more substantial for freezer storage.

They do lose crispness when frozen, but are still great for using as part of th "Trinity" of seasonings.
