Frozen Jalapeños

Would you ever think to freeze a jalapeño? I hadn't until this summer when I bought 50 of them to make pickled jalapeños that I canned. I had a few left over, so I put them in a ziplock bag and popped them into the freezer. Of course the texture isn't the same as fresh, since they lose their crispness by being frozen. They are however, still bright green and a great addition to any dish. Whenever I want to add a bit of spice to a dish or salsa, I just slice or shave off some pepper. A little extra care should be taken as the frozen pepper can be slippery.
