How to Roast Any Pepper

Get your pepper fix! Learn how to roast any pepper using the following steps.

 

Steps:

1. Cut the peppers in half, remove the stem and seeds.
2. Place the peppers on a baking sheet with the cut side facing down.
3. Preheat the oven to 450°F and then change it to broil.
4. Place the baking sheet on the top shelf in the oven and broil until the outer layer of the skin has blackened, about 10‑20 minutes.
5. Place the peppers in a zip‑lock bag or other sealable container, seal and let them cool until you can handle them, about 20 minutes.
6. Remove the skins from the peppers. The skins should easily "pinch" off.
7. You can then individually wrap and freeze peppers for use later.

Freezing peppers can make them last longer plus they're convenient to add to meals.

 

Tips on Freezing Roasted Peppers:

1. Freeze within a day of roasting to avoid bacteria growth.
2. Peppers can be frozen with the skin or they can be skinned and deseeded. To deseed peppers, use a spoon and scrape down the sides.
3. Place peppers in a freezer bag and remove the excess air, seal and place in the freezer.
4. We recommend labeling the freezer bag with the date, type of pepper and heat level. This makes it easier to identify for future use.

Tips for Thawing Peppers:

1. Thaw frozen peppers in the refrigerator to avoid bacteria.
2. Once thawed, add peppers to your favorite pepper recipes, like soups, chili, casseroles and enchiladas.

Roasted Jalapeno Poppers

Recipe courtesy of Rachael Ray

 

Ingredients

• 12 large jalapeno peppers
• 2 ounces feta cheese
• 4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
• 4 ounces shredded smoked pepper Jack cheese, or other hot pepper cheese, or extra-sharp Cheddar
• A small handful fresh cilantro, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons grated onion

Directions

Watch how to make this recipe.

· Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

· Cut 1/3 of each pepper off lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Place on a baking sheet. If peppers do not sit flat on the baking sheet, slice a thin piece off the bottom of the pepper so it will not roll around.

· Mash the feta, cream cheese, shredded cheese, cilantro, and onion together and stuff the peppers with the mixture. Roast for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the peppers are tender and the cheese is brown at the edges and bubbly.

Uses of Hot Pepper Jelly/Sauce, Chutneys, and Jams

With all of my autumn canning/cooking, some answers and a question:

31 Ways to Eat Hot Pepper Jelly and canned Pepper Sauce

For me, it makes anything tasty - including burgers. Great with cheese and cream cheese. All cheese requires some fruity accompaniment. Really fine as a meat glaze. Heck, I dip my breakfast hard-boiled egg in some, and put some on scrambled eggs. I put some on rice too. It's not for little children.

10 Ways to Use Chutneys

Pepper Lovers Start Your Engines

Chile, chili, chilli, chilies, pepper, paprika, aji, capsicum, chiles pasado, pimento, pimiento, paprika. Let's straighten out this mess.
