I did some more 'Peppadew' - pickled Malawian Piquante peppers this year, but I also threw in some Aji Champion peppers too, they are super sweet this year (they taste somewhere between apples or strawberries!).

Preserving my pepper harvests 🌶️🌶️🌶️ 🌱

It’s release day! The new @thedears.bsky.social album is here and it is STUNNING.
