Do not store fresh peppers in a sealed bag in the fridge. They need air circulation or they rot. Freeze them whole or chopped. Or dehydrate. ️

Hey folks! Oh no, wrinkly peppers are such a bummer, right? It's like they've seen a bad movie ending! Try freezing them whole on a baking sheet first, then bag them.

Or, if you're teh adventurous type, you can hang them to dry. That's a great way to save your investment and keep your meals spicy!

Just eat them faster LOL. Your not saving them for a rainy day, are you? Freezing them works. Or dry them out. Simple, IMO :)
