ROASTED PEPPERS IN OIL (PEPERONI ARROSTITI SOTTO OLIO)



Roasted Peppers in Oil (Peperoni Arrostiti Sotto Olio) image

I learned how to make these from my Italian mother-in-law. She doesn't have any of her recipes written down. She just makes them like she always has for years. They can be used in other dishes as well (bruschetta, pureed with cream over pasta, etc). I usually just have them on the dinner table in a relish tray as a side dish to any meal.

ROASTED PEPPERS WITH PARSLEY AND BLACK OLIVES



Roasted Peppers with Parsley and Black Olives image

Provided by Julia Della Croce

Yield Makes 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

8 large red bell peppers, or a mixture of red, yellow, and orange bell peppers
extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 pound sharp-flavored black olives, pitted and sliced
2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh Italian parsley

Steps:

  • Arrange the peppers on a grill rack above a charcoal fire, on wire racks positioned over the burners of a gas or electric stove, 2 to 3 inches under a preheated broiler, or in an oven preheated to 400°F. Roast them until they are charred all over and tender inside, turning them frequently to ensure that they blacken evenly, about 30 minutes in the oven, but less time by the other methods. When the peppers are cool enough to handle, peel off the skins using your fingertips, cut the peppers in half, and remove and discard the stems, ribs, and seeds. (Do not do this under running water; it will wash away some of the delicious smoky flavor.)
  • Cut the roasted, peeled, and seeded peppers into long strips about 3/4 inch wide. Arrange them on a plate. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and strew with olives and parsley. Serve at room temperature.

ROASTED PEPPERS WITH CAPERS, OLIVES AND ANCHOVY



Roasted Peppers With Capers, Olives and Anchovy image

A fresh sweet pepper roasted at home can be revelatory. The flames of an outdoor grill, stovetop burner or broiler add a touch of smokiness, while helping to remove a pepper's tough skin. To prevent the pepper from overcooking, do not place it in a closed container after roasting, as some suggest - just let it cool uncovered on a plate. The skin will still come off and the flesh won't be mushy. The combination of sweet pepper and salty anchovy is classic. Serve this carpaccio-style, using a whole pepper to cover the plate, or arrange in alternating rows.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 red bell or other large sweet peppers, such as Corno di Toro
Kosher salt and black pepper
Pinch of red-pepper flakes
1 small garlic clove, grated
Extra-virgin olive oil
12 anchovy fillets, rinsed and blotted
1 teaspoon capers
12 black olives
Basil leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Roast the peppers: Place each pepper directly on the flames of a stovetop burner or under the broiler as close to the flames as possible. (Alternatively, place the pepper on a hot charcoal or gas grill.) Turning frequently with tongs, allow the skin to blacken and blister all over; About 10 minutes should suffice. Remove from flames, and leave to rest on a plate until cool enough to handle. Ideally, you should cook all the peppers at once rather than one at a time.
  • Cut the roasted pepper in half lengthwise. Using a small knife, scrape away and discard seeds. Turn over and scrape away the blackened skin. Wipe with a paper towel, if necessary. Do not rinse - a little char is fine. Leave the pepper halves in one piece or cut into strips 3/4-inch wide. Place in a small bowl, toss with salt and pepper, red-pepper flakes, garlic and a little olive oil. Leave to marinate at least 10 minutes.
  • Lay pepper halves or strips flat on a plate and add 3 or 4 anchovy fillets per serving. Garnish with a few capers and olives. Sprinkle with a little more salt and olive oil, and scatter basil leaves over the top.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, firm peppers. This will ensure that they roast evenly and have a good flavor.
  • Roast the peppers at a high temperature. This will help to caramelize the sugars in the peppers and give them a smoky flavor.
  • Roast the peppers until they are tender. You can check this by piercing them with a fork. If the fork goes in easily, the peppers are done.
  • Remove the peppers from the oven and immediately place them in a paper bag. This will help to steam the peppers and make them easier to peel.
  • Once the peppers are cool enough to handle, peel and seed them. You can then slice or chop the peppers and use them in a variety of recipes.
  • Roasted peppers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

Roasted peppers are a versatile and delicious ingredient that can be used in a variety of dishes. They are perfect for adding a smoky, slightly sweet flavor to salads, sandwiches, pizzas, and pasta dishes. Roasted peppers can also be used as a topping for grilled meats and fish. With a little planning, you can easily roast peppers at home and enjoy them all week long.
