Fire Roasted Red Peppers

Fire Roasted Red Peppers

Recipe suggestions: Prep these fire roasted peppers for our Roasted Red Pepper Hummus and/or Red Pepper Balsamic dressing recipe.

Ingredients:

• 6 large red peppers

• extra virgin olive oil

• kosher sea salt

• 2 tsp vinegar (your choice)

Directions:

Step 1
Set oven to broil (on highest setting)

Step 2
Cut peppers in half lengthwise, scoop out the seeds and core. Place them on a parchment paper or tin foil lined baking sheet cut-side down. Drizzle with olive oil, add a dash of salt. Broil for 12-16 minutes, until skins are almost entirely black.

Step 3
Turn off broiler and adjust oven to 250°F. Allow peppers to cool slightly, (until you can comfortably handle them). Peel off the skins and roast for 25-30 minutes, until peppers are very tender and cooked through. Allow peppers to cool. Slice or tear into strips.

Step 4
Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pack peppers into a jar or similar airtight container. Pour 2 tsp vinegar and enough olive oil for peppers to be fully submerged. These will keep in the fridge for 1-2 months.
