| | Need a good pictorial reference for chiles
In my local grocery stores, I'm seeing more and more chiles and I have no idea what they are. I know the jalapenos, habaneros, and Thai chiles, but many are not familiar to me.
Do any of you know of a good referemce with pictures so that I can acquaint myself? Please help me.

[quote=college_cook]This website has a lot of different chiles, and some additional plants as well, with good pics. Photo Gallery 2004
This is a Hungarian site, very nice guy.
He collects seeds from all over the world and grows them on a balcony.
I talk to him often (well, easy for me, I'm Hungarian) | | |

If you are looking for a pretty good guide to dry chilies I sometimes refer to; Cook's Thesaurus: Dried Chiles
Enjoy,
