Remember way back... my mom used to make little fruit balls (watch it!) for salads with a tiny bowl scoop. Don't remember the name... but I found a new use for it.

Cleaning out Jap pepper boats!
Either end depending on the size of the pepper. Slide the cup just under the stem top and slide down .

It's a melon baller (keep it clean guys).

That looks like it's balled a lot of melon too! Way to reinvent a classic kitchen tool.
 
Cleans them out real good. Had some looking like that last night and got a yipe from one of my boys when he decided to see if the stem is edible. Fired him right up! I usually just clean them out with a paring knife but that leaves you with "latent" heat on your hands.
 
Don't forget the latex gloves to prevent the spread of fire!!!:eek:

(2) pairs doubled up,a full faceshield, and apron. (Insert evil laugh here).:twisted::twisted::twisted:
 
A thin flexible blade grapefruit knife works real good especially when you aren't cutting them in half. :biggrin:

Once saw a spinner type tool for cleaning out whole peppers, hoping somebody has that same thing??
 
hmmmm.....I use one of those 'chile twisters'....they work great. I don't have to split the japs that way. I've got 2 different sizes of them.

I just cut the stem off, stick in the chile twister and twist it a few times, and move on to the next one.....then rinse them out. Then I fill'em using a pastry bag with a large holed nozzle. Makes short work of ABT's.

That's it!! Thats how i like to do mine also.
I'll try Google unless ya got a website.
 
I use a small metal measuring spoon of the correct size for the pepper.
The trick is to find the ultra cheap stamped metal spoons with the sharp edges! :wink:
Works wonderful.

Tater peeler for topped japs. A simple teaspoon for boats.
Used to use my thumbnail until I hit a batch of hot ones. Don't do that anymore.
 
learned the glove trick a long time ago, btw, just use a cheap sandwich bag and clip one end, works excellent I use some c cheese, some rub, and some little smokies thats been either diced up or grounded for the filling

GOOD EATS
