  • When I pick them up at my girlfriends house, I just lay them out in the sun to dry. Never had a bug problem with them, at least not yet.

    I did some research, and I don't think it is possible to keep them green. Green=immature. As they age, they will darken. You could try sealing them while green...that might work

    I've never managed to keep mine green so am watching with interest in case someone knows. I would imagine you would have to pickle them some how.
