    I feel like "just dehydrate the pepper" kinda misses the point. It's easy to get dried chili peppers, and I know Berry frequently uses them as a plus-up. But stable fresh chili isn't as trivial. If freezing has more of the fresh chili flavor contribution, that seems worth it.

    This is the taste of my childhood. I think my Mom might've picked the recipe up from the same place this originated. In our home it was always an open faced kind of situation, and mom used cream of mushroom soup instead and no celery. I'm in my 50's now and still make it every now and then, but usually just for myself…my wife and kids think it's weird. Ahhh the 70's.

    Ohhhhhhhhhh as soon as I saw the cranberry sauce, I knew it was gonna be good!! Ok, maybe not great, but good. The coffee shop I worked at years ago sold a sandwich called the California Turkey sandwich, and it was cream cheese, cranberry sauce just like that, and turkey on whole wheat. So good. I make it to this day.
    Also - I would argue freezing and grating a chile like that is totally different from dehydrating it. Closer to fresh. Yum.

    I would have added a piece of cheddar cheese, scrapped the chicken soup mixture, heated it up as directed in toaster oven with toasted bread and THEN added either the cranberry jelly or made some cranberry mixture (works cold or hot but I would go with it cold) on top and I would have loved to have given it "a go". I don't do peppers too much or like heat so that ruins it for me, but I love that you are adventurous with heat as well as unique mixtures from other countries. I love your bravery and willingness to try new things! I used to be that way. Now I am just an old goattess who likes what she likes. LOL

    No need for a dehydrator. Peppers will typically dry out nicely, even here in damp Seattle, if you just let them hang out where they can get some air.
    I buy my peppers at the restaurant supply store in 4 lb packages, and since there’s only me eating them I usually have a fair number left at the end of the week. I alternate letting them dry and fermenting them, as the mood strikes me.
    The peppers usually ripen as they dry. So my last batch of serranos all turned red. They make a really fiery powder.
    I also have a batch of jalapeños fermenting ATM. Lacto fermentation is fun and easy.
    I highly recommend buying too many peppers as a standard practice.

  • @ddewittfulton

    My theory is... it was the 70s. For whatever reason, there's a span of maybe 15 years where there was a big canned tuna push and as such tuna started to appear in a lot of dishes. I don't think this is too far away from the infamous tuna casserole of Welcome Back Kotter fame. If you had two things in your working-class pantry, it was likely a can of Campbell's Soup and a tin of tuna. I suspect that if there was an original recipe out there, it was indeed a chicken salad sandwich. I also suspect that that tuna inclusion recipe may date back to the 60s when Franco-American owned BOTH Campbell's and Bumble Bee Tuna. That kind of grocery store syntergy took off like an Atlas V rocket in the years following WW2. I wager there's a Campbell's cookbook circa 1960 that has this recipe in it.
