Time 20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 large red bell peppers
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon sour cream
2 teaspoons vinegar
1 clove garlic
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
salt to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to broil.

Place the blackened peppers in a plastic bag, tied loosely with some air inside, for 15 minutes. Remove the stems and peel the peppers. Discard the cores and seeds. Cut peppers into wide strips.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and flavorful red peppers: To ensure the best flavor, select ripe and plump red peppers with vibrant color. Overripe or blemished peppers can compromise the taste of the spread.
  • Roast the peppers properly: Roasting the red peppers is a crucial step that brings out their natural sweetness and smokiness. Roast them until they are slightly charred and tender, but not mushy. This will allow for easy peeling and a rich, concentrated flavor.
  • Use a food processor or blender: To achieve a smooth and creamy spread, use a food processor or blender. This will help combine all the ingredients evenly and create a velvety texture.
  • Adjust the seasoning to taste: Taste the spread and adjust the seasoning as desired. You may want to add more salt, pepper, garlic, or herbs to suit your personal preference.
  • Let the spread cool and chill before serving: Allow the roasted red pepper spread to cool slightly before transferring it to a serving bowl. Chilling the spread for at least 30 minutes helps it firm up and develop a more intense flavor.

Conclusion:

Roasted red pepper spread is a versatile and delicious dip, condiment, or appetizer that can be enjoyed in various ways. Experiment with different herbs, spices, and ingredients to create unique flavor variations. Whether you prefer a smoky, spicy, or herby spread, the possibilities are endless. Serve it with crackers, bread, vegetables, or as a topping for sandwiches and wraps. Enjoy the vibrant flavors and health benefits of roasted red peppers in this simple yet satisfying spread.
