How do you roast the peppers
Hi Miriam – quick fix – by a jar of roasted red peppers – so you won’t have yellow, won’t be the end of the world. Might not be as colorful but will still be delish. If you want to roast your own peppers here is a quick how to: 1. Preheat your oven to 500 degrees F. 2. Cut peppers into quarters and remove seeds and membranes. 3. Generously coat the skin side of the peppers with oil. Place peppers skin side up on a baking sheet and roast until the skin becomes blistery and black. 4. Remove from the oven and place in a brown paper bag folded over at the top or in a bowl covered tightly with saran wrap and allow to cool for about 15 to 20 minutes. 5. Once cooled the skins should peel off the peppers easily. 6. Use in recipes as directed.
Another way, take whole peppers and
place them on your electric range,they will blacken, when cooled peel off skins. Faster than the above
