Roasted Peppers Conserved In Oil Food

ROASTED PEPPERS IN OIL RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• To bake, preheat the oven to 400 F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• If broiling, preheat the broiler and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Follow the same directions as for baking, checking often as the direct heat will char the peppers more quickly.
• If grilling, set the heat to medium-high and oil the grates. Place the peppers directly on greased grates and cook, rotating the peppers to char evenly. Grilling the peppers can take from 10 to 15 min. (Grilling the peppers can speed up the process so you need to watch the peppers at all times to avoid over-charring the skins and potentially tearing of the pepper meat due to the heat. This will cause the vegetables' liquid to gush out, and the grill's flame to catch a spark.)

ROASTED PEPPERS IN OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• Place the peppers directly onto the burners of a gas stove. Cook the peppers, turning frequently, until they are charred on all sides. Put the peppers into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let them steam for about 15 minutes. (If you do not have a gas stove preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Coat the peppers with some olive oil and place them on a baking sheet. Cook the peppers until they are soft and have collapsed, about 1 hour. Set the peppers aside until they are cool enough to handle.)
• Peel, stem, and seed the peppers; cut them into wide strips. Place the warm pepper strips into a shallow serving dish. Top with the oregano, garlic, olive oil, and vinegar. Season them with salt and pepper and mix them gently to combine the flavors. Let them sit to cool and serve at room temperature.

• Roast the peppers over a grill or burner, under the broiler, or in the oven. When they are charred, remove them from the heat and place them in a bowl. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic, or set a lid or plate on top and allow the peppers to cool. Skin and seed. Cut or pull the peppers apart into 3 or 4 wide pieces. Wipe dry with paper towels or a damp kitchen towel. Season with salt.
• Pour a little olive oil into the bottom of two clean, sterilized 1-cup jars or one 1-pint wide-mouth jar. Place the bay leaf and garlic in the jar, then a layer of pepper pieces. Drizzle olive oil over the peppers and repeat with another layer, drizzling each layer with oil until you have filled the jar. Stick a thyme sprig into the jar, cover the peppers completely with oil, and screw on the top. Leave at room temperature for a day, then refrigerate.

• Place a layer of peppers and drizzle with oil; repeat until you fill the jar.
• Stick the thyme down into the jar and top off with oil; screw on the cover and leave at room temperature for one day.
