The peppers may still turn yellow and red as they sit. The red bell and yellow long peppers that you see on the left were mostly green when I picked them a couple of weeks ago.
I was surprised at how many long peppers there were. There are nine plants, so I shouldn't have been all that surprised. Still, I was. Many of the remaining tomatoes had burst, but I got some. I also found a couple of tiny eggplant and one lonely zucchini. Now I have to figure out what to do with these peppers to preserve them. It's also time to start thinking about pulling up plants and preparing the plot for winter.
What a delicious photo!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bounty, Walt :)
ReplyDeleteI have a friend who used to stuff peppers with finely chopped cabbage and pickle them. Delicious, though I don't know how she did it.
ReplyDeleteYour late harvest is very beautiful.
Perhaps you should call yourself Peter Piper!

ReplyDeletemitch, if the bell peppers were all ripe at the same time, I'd roast them.
