Q: Hi Dave,
My Scovie Award-winning Habanero & Cranberry Jelly uses fresh habaneros. Obviously, these aren’t available year-round. How many dried would you substitute? One for one? How about using ground habanero powder? Thanks for your advice.

A: Hello Mike:
Yes, substitute 1 dried for each fresh one. Just rehydrate them in warm water. You can use habanero powder at the rate of 1 teaspoon per pod.
