Hi,

I have a jar of long pepper my friend brought me from Nepal, and am having
trouble finding recipes that exploit/use it. We would be interested in any
sort of recipe, as even though we are basically carnivores, we have
vegetarian and Vegan friends, etc. Thanks!

Are those peppers hot? I found green long peppers in Nepal a pair
of times, and one time they were as hot as red-hot chili.
If they're that hot, then think of them as of just another chili
pepper.

No, they're not peppers at all--long pepper is its own spice entirely.
Here's a link:

If they are like these (that we call "friggitelli") you can only fry them.
When ready (they become soft) you dry on food paper, put some salt and eat
with all seeds inside.

I don't know, then! I've never seen such a thing. But the idea to fry them
isn't very bad

No, they're a spice. I have the dried ones. Thanks, though!

Looks like you grind it and use it like black pepper.

My Indian ex-ILs told me they were used in making Indian pickles...the
kind that have lime rinds and oil, etc. in them.

Oh, oh, oh! I have just seen recipes calling for this. I
don't recall whether they were early American or older
European. Take a look at old recipes. Hmmm. Here's a
thought. Try looking for this term on
