Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F,
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Cut each pepper in half. Remove the seeds, stem and membranes, then place cut side down on your baking sheet, along with the garlic cloves (unpeeled),
- Roast the sweet peppers for 20 minutes until browned or blackened.
- Allow to cool, then slide the skins off.
- Remove the skin from the garlic head and discard the skin, keeping the garlic.
- Place the olive oil in a large dutch oven pot and heat over medium heat.
- Add the onions and cook for 2 minutes until translucent. Add the roasted garlic and spices.
- Heat until fragrant, then add the sweet peppers and stock.
- Increase heat to high until boiling, then reduce to a simmer.
- Continue simmering for 15 minutes.
- In batches, puree the soup until smooth. You may use an immersion blender, or use a regular blender – just be careful not to fill all the way, and hold the top with a towel!
- Return the pureed soup to the pan and test for seasoning.
- Adjust the seasoning as necessary and bring to a simmer until heated through.
- Devour.
Notes
- *Note: do not be afraid of spice in this recipe! Peppers are quite watery/flavorless on their own, so the combination of roasting and adding a healthy dose of spice helps bump up the flavor of this recipe.
- Do you have to peel peppers for soup? Yes! But, roasting them makes it super easy. You can wait til they cool and slide them right off, or place them in a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap, and then they'll peel easily.
- Add a dollop of sour cream, yogurt or a little heavy cream in before serving, and swirl it in a pretty pattern.
- Is Red Pepper Soup Gluten Free? Essentially, yes. As always, check the products used are certified gluten free.
