I see Indian recipes calling for “byadgi” chiles and also smooth skin “guntur”. Maybe arbols for smooth skin? No idea what byadgi are.

@Sue – I think Thai chilies are pretty much the same as Indian chilis. Behind those two though, serrano chilis are my next choice.

@Neha – I freeze them whole but my mom chops them and then freezes them. When you freeze them whole, if you take them out and allow to slightly thaw, you can chop pretty easily.

(Both of which are my own personal preference in Indian, Thai, or Mexican cooking. Not a huge fan of big fat jalapenos. Unless they are pickled. With carrots. And onions! )

Question is how do you freeze them? do you grind them and freeze or you just freeze the whole chillies and thaw once needed? I love green chillies but i hate the fact that they go bad so quickly.
