Notes
- To make roasted peppers in the oven - place the whole peppers on a parchment paper lined baking sheet and bake in a 425F / 220C oven for approximately 20-30 minutes until done. Move to a clean bowl cover and let sit 20 minutes then clean and rip or cut into strips.
- Left over roasted peppers should be stored in a sterilized jar with a tight fitting lid, make sure the peppers are covered in olive oil. Opened jars can be kept in the fridge for up to 2-3 weeks. If any mold appears or there is an off smell, toss the peppers.
- Roasted peppers can also be frozen, place cleaned roasted peppers in an airtight freezer bag or container. They will last 10-12 months in the freezer.
