Tips:
- Choose ripe, firm red bell peppers for the best flavor and texture. Roasting the peppers intensifies their sweetness and smoky flavor, so don't skip this step.
- Use a good quality olive oil for the sauce. Extra virgin olive oil has a more robust flavor and is healthier than regular olive oil.
- Add a touch of heat to the sauce with a pinch of red pepper flakes or a serrano pepper. If you like it spicy, you can also add a tablespoon of Sriracha or your favorite hot sauce.
- Taste the sauce as you go and adjust the seasonings to your liking. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice.
Conclusion:
Sweet red pepper sauce is a versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes. It's perfect for dipping, drizzling, or spreading.
