Cook the heck out of it, salt and pepper it, freeze it.
Or freeze it raw, thaw and cook any time within a month or so...
So many *different* chile recipes out there, no real tips or secrets, just
lotsa experimenting and trying different recipes.
I like lotsa fresh ground black pepper. Cumin is the dominant spice in
traditional chillies.
