INSTRUCTIONS
* New York or Vermont sharp White
Makes 2 1/2 cups
Combine all of the ingredients in a glass, crockery or stainless steel
mixing bowl and mix well. Season to taste with cayenne pepper. Refrigerate
until ready to serve.
Note: If you prefer a spicy version, add 1 Tablespoon sauteed minced
jalapeno pepper and a few dashes of hot sauce.
ROASTED PEPPERS
Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
Wash, drain and dry the peppers. Rub the peppers with olive oil by hand,
just to coat them lightly. Place the peppers on a baking pan and roast on
the top shelf of the 500 degree oven for about 25 minutes, turning once or
twice. The skin should be well blistered and will be blackened in some
places.
Remove the peppers from the oven. Place them in a small bowl and cover it
tightly with plastic wrap. Let the peppers cool for 10 to 15 minutes. The
skin will become loose and easy to peel the skin off of the peppers. Remove
the stems, cores and seeds. Do not rinse. At this point you may use the
peppers in any manner that you would use pimientos. Note: Thin peppers will
have a shorter roasting time. It's prferrable to use fresh peppers that
look very healthy and have good thick flesh.
