Provided by Ina Garten

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 2

4 large red or yellow bell peppers, preferably Holland
2 tablespoons good olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees.
  • Place the whole peppers on a sheet pan and place in the oven for 30 to 40 minutes, until the skins are completely wrinkled and the peppers are charred, turning them twice during roasting. Remove the pan from the oven and immediately cover it tightly with aluminum foil. Set aside for 30 minutes, or until the peppers are cool enough to handle.
  • Remove the stem from each pepper and cut them in quarters. Remove the peels and seeds and place the peppers in a bowl along with any juices that have collected. Discard the stems, peels, and seeds. Pour the oil over the peppers. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

Jarred roasted red peppers lend a smoky sweetness to this silky puree that's as good with chips as it is folded into eggs or drizzled over roasted potatoes.

RED-RIBBON ROASTED SALSA



Red-Ribbon Roasted Salsa image

This recipe originated from a recipe that was supposed to duplicate that of my favorite Mexican restaurant. I've heavily modified the original recipe and like this variation SO much more! It's relatively easy. This makes a medium-hot salsa. I've named it 'Red-Ribbon' because it took second place at my company salsa competition last Cinco de Mayo (lost first in a tie-breaker!).

Time 3h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

10 dried chipotle peppers
12 roma (plum) tomatoes
¼ yellow onion, coarsely chopped
2 cloves garlic, or more to taste
2 tablespoons white vinegar
2 teaspoons salt
1 pinch ground black pepper, or to taste
1 lime, juiced, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Fill a saucepan with water, stir in dried chipotle peppers, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until peppers are soft, about 30 minutes. Drain and let cool. When peppers are cool, remove stems, cut open peppers, and remove seeds. Set peppers aside.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Grill tomatoes on hot grate until skin blackens and begins to peel, turning tomatoes often to blacken all sides, about 10 minutes. Set grilled tomatoes aside to cool.
  • Place grilled tomatoes, chipotle peppers, yellow onion, white vinegar, salt, black pepper, and lime juice into a food processor; pulse a few times, then process until almost pureed.
  • Refrigerate until flavors have blended, at least 2 hours to overnight.

SALSA CRIOLLA



Salsa Criolla image

This popular Peruvian condiment requires only five ingredients, but it's bursting with flavor. Slivered onions and fresh peppers are marinated in lime juice to create a tangy and spicy relish. Traditionally, the salsa is made with fresh aji amarillo chiles, which can be difficult to find; luckily, a combination of orange bell pepper and serrano chiles deliver similar flavor, color and heat. (For a milder salsa, remove the seeds from the serrano before using.) Most often served with arroz con pollo, this bright relish is also a perfect accompaniment to roasted chicken, and makes a great topping on tacos and sandwiches. The salsa can be refrigerated for three days.
