Liz you are just the best. I always have a bottle of cayenne pepper oil in the fridge. I dry them first, poke a few holes in each one with a toothpick and fill a packed bottle with bertoli extra light olive oil. After a couple of days on the counter the oil gets really pink. Then it goes in the fridge.
That sounds deelish.....a must try.
My Olive Brined Peppers are good for those who throw away nothing.
