Pickled Roasted Bell Peppers
Craving a unique and tasty addition to your meals? Try making pickled roasted bell peppers. This recipe is not only delicious but also versatile, making it a personal favorite. I once used a rainbow of 26 different colored bell peppers to fill two jars. However, for a single jar, you'll need about 10-14 bell peppers.
Ingredients
- 10-14 bell peppers
- Salt to taste
- 1 fresh serrano pepper
- 2 cloves of garlic
- Fresh herbs lemon thyme or curry
- Raw apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Roast all bell peppers for approximately 45 minutes.
- Immediately after roasting, transfer the peppers into a bowl and cover it with cling film. Let it sit for 30 minutes. This step makes the skin removal process easier.
- After the peppers have cooled, peel off the skin and place the roasted bell peppers in a jar. Make sure to drain any excess water from the peppers to avoid a bitter taste.
- Now, it’s time to add flavor. Sprinkle some salt, add a fresh serrano pepper, a couple of garlic cloves, and your choice of fresh herbs such as lemon thyme or curry. Layer these ingredients between the peppers in the jar.
- Pour raw apple cider vinegar over the peppers until they are fully submerged. Seal the jar tightly and label it with the date.
- Store the jar in the refrigerator for at least a week before using. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
