Cut the peppers into random pieces, put them in a bag, and place them in the freezer for 6 hours, then take the bag out, shake it a little, and put it back in place. Sign the date and the type of pepper.

It is worth noting that frozen peppers are good for a year.
"If you need a certain amount of the product, take it out of the bag, close it airtight, and immediately return it to the freezer. Do not allow the bag to defrost, because the vegetable will immediately lose its flavor and crunch," Klopotenko recommends.
