Roasted red peppers are made by cooking red bell peppers until their skin becomes charred and blistered. This process enhances their natural sweetness and gives them a smoky flavor. They can be prepared using various methods, including grilling, broiling, or baking. Once roasted, the skin is typically removed, leaving behind tender, flavorful flesh. These peppers are versatile and can be used in a variety of dishes. They are often added to salads, sandwiches, and pasta, or blended into sauces and dips. Roasted red peppers are also a popular ingredient in Mediterranean cuisine, contributing to dishes like hummus and tapas.
