How do I keep cooked hot peppers from going bad?

[gabagoo]

Hope I git the right forum here...

I bought a basket of hot banana peppers and I want to fry them up in oil and garlic and let them sit in fridge until I use them up.
What is the best way to make sure they dont go bad?

Eat them all in three days or less.

...or freeze them.

What if I store them in a glass jar in olive oil? there must be a way, I mean you can buy them in jars at specialty grocers.

If you store them in a glass jar in olive oil, then you will be creating a Botulism factory. Yes you can buy them in stores that way, but those companies spend milllions of dollars to be able to do it.

I guess I should ask then why do they sell them by the basket...no one could eat them that fast. Can I stire the peppers before cooking?

I've never seen them sold by the basket, though they are often displayed in a basket or a bin in the stores. Is that what you mean?

What do you have your peppers in that would need to be stirred before cooking?
