Kapia peppers for the freezer

Kapia peppers for the freezer are cut into small dice and stored raw for soup. Small bags make it easy to take out only what you need, without thawing the whole batch. I try to keep the pieces about the same size, without chopping them too finely. Preparation: 20 minutes. Cooking: 0 minutes. Total time: 20 minutes. Servings: 10.

Ingredients
- 1 kg kapia peppers
Preparation
1. In about 20 minutes, wash the peppers, remove the stems and seeds, then cut them into thin strips and small dice. 2. Divide the diced peppers into small bags and put them in the freezer.
Notes
For soup, add the peppers to the pot straight from the freezer. I make bags with enough for one pot and lay them in a single layer until frozen, then stack them. Choose firm, meaty peppers with no soft spots; they’re easier to cut and the dice hold their shape. Don’t rush drying them after washing, because any water left on them freezes between the pieces and makes them stick together. Keep them in the freezer for 8-10 months and write the date on each bag, so you use the older portions first.
Frequently asked questions
What size should the diced pieces be?
For soup, cut them into dice about 5 mm across.
Do they need to be blanched before freezing?
No. Blanching them for 2 minutes softens them before they go into the soup.
Can I use red bell peppers instead of kapia peppers?
Yes, replace 1 kg of kapia peppers with 1 kg of red bell peppers.
