ROASTED PEPPER AND BASIL SALSA



ROASTED PEPPER AND BASIL SALSA image

Yield 1 Cup

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 red peppers (I used large peppers--got more than 1 cup.)
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
10 basil leaves, torn (I used large leaves.)
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
3 tbsps olive oil
salt and black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Grill, peel and seed the peppers. (I didn't peel. I seeded first.) Cut into a fine dice. (I didn't do it too fine.) Combine with rest of ingredients, cover and let stand for 30 minutes at room temperature to allow flavors to marry. Serve at room temp. Great wih grilled fish. NB: Can be made 1 day in advance, but shoutld be brought back to room temp before serving. Also, if preparing in advance, omit basil, without basil, which should not be added until two hours before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose the right peppers: For the best flavor, use a combination of ripe red, orange, and yellow bell peppers. If you like things spicy, add a few jalapenos or serrano peppers to the mix.
  • Roast the peppers properly: Roasting the peppers brings out their sweetness and flavor. To get the best results, roast the peppers until they are slightly charred and softened.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better your salsa will taste. Use ripe tomatoes, onions, cilantro, and lime juice for the best flavor.
  • Season to taste: Once you've combined all of the ingredients, taste the salsa and adjust the seasonings as needed. Add more salt, pepper, or lime juice until it tastes just right.
  • Let the salsa rest: After you've made the salsa, let it rest for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together and develop.

Conclusion:

Roasted pepper salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes. It's perfect for tacos, burritos, nachos, and quesadillas. It can also be used as a dipping sauce for chips or vegetables. No matter how you choose to use it, roasted pepper salsa is sure to add a burst of flavor to your meal.
