To dry them, heat oven to 170F. Place the peppers on a stone or tray in the oven. The small peppers dried out overnight, but the poblanos took all night and all the next day. I flipped the poblanos halfway through.
Washed and dried before oven
Partially dried
Smaller peppers done; gave the poblanos more time
