Want to roast your own Peppers, try the following!

  • Grab a little oil and apply it to the peppers

  • Rub them thoroughly to ensure that they are well covered by the oil

  • Sprinkle a little salt over them and place them on a pan (Cast Iron works best) and into the oven on 450 degress until the skins begin to break and peel.

  • Once the skin begins to peel, remove the peppers from the oven, place them in a bowl covered with plastic wrap (or into a ziplock bag) and allow the peppers to sweat and cool.

  • Once they’ve cooled, remove the peppers form the oven and peel the skins off.

  • Season them with just a little salt and pepper and you’re all done!
