Sun-Drying Peppers . . . progress

 

 

Two more days and some of the peppers are turning bright red. Interesting. I thought they would just get darker and darker until they lost all their color. Instead, they look like peppers (bell variety) that turn red as they ripen. Could it be that jalapenos are not quite ripe when picked? And now they're actually ripening as they hang in the sun?

I'm curious to see if they retain this red color when they're dry.

They're getting quite wrinkly, too.
