Got peppers?
They start coming in fast, before you can figure out what to do with them. The markets are loaded: jalapenos, Anaheims, poblanos.
You can roast or cook with them, but if you want the real heat, try some salsa.
Salsa contest winners were chosen for the recent Brookside Farmers Market competition.
