Description
Roasting fresh peppers brings out the best of their personality and also adds a nice smoky, charred flavor.
Ingredients
- Peppers! Whatever kind of pepper your recipe calls for.
Instructions
- Place your peppers in a dry saute pan or cast iron pan. Heat the pan over medium high heat on the stovetop.
- Leave the peppers until they start to char, then turn to another side. Keep turning every 5 minutes or so until most of the pepper is charred black.
- Place the peppers into a bowl and cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Let the peppers steam in the bowl for 10-15 minutes.
- Remove the peppers from the bowl and place on a cutting board. You’ll see that the skin of the pepper will peel off fairly easily. Scrape as much of this skin off the pepper as you can. Don’t worry about leaving some of the charred skin on, that will add flavor!
- Cut the tops of the peppers off then cut open the peppers to remove the seeds and ribs.
- Now you can cut the peppers into whatever you need for your recipe!
