Pickled peppers. I did mine from the garden this year, and yummmm. I
used some standard recipe I got off google.

I needed a jalapeno pepper for a fajita marinade. My wife had to buy a
whole pack of them at the supermarket. Is there a long term way to store
the extras?

Can they be frozen? Or will they turn to mush when thawed?

Any suggestions??

Doan't freeze. Halve or slice and fill a jar with the jalpeños and white
vinegar and store in refrigerator. The peppers can be used in many ways,
and the vinegar makes a good seasoning or in salad dressing.

Yes you can freeze them. They *will* get mushy, but they'll still taste
fresh and you can cook with them.

How much is "a whole pack"?

I like to eat them fresh with a sandwich, like a normal person would eat a
dill pickle.

Definitely. There's still quite good even without smoke.

Jalapeno poppers. I don't have a recipe handy but I'm sure Google knows
a few.

flavoring....yeah, yeah, yeah...I'll post it when I get home from work

My marinade only needs one. There are 9 in the package.

Thanks for all the suggestions so far. Now I'm thinking I might make some
corn muffins with diced jalapenos in them.

Make a pepper cheese spread or dip.

Clean and mince the jalapenos, and mix with cheddar.

That works with some peppers, but usually jalapenos will mold on the inside
before they dry -- they have very thick walls and a waxy skin. Sometimes
they just rot.

You could cut them in half and dry them.
