Roasted red peppers add an extra punch to any meal. Their amazing earthy, smoky flavor can step up any pasta or sauce. The smell alone is intoxicating and it is so easy to do on your own you will never need to buy the jarred stuff again. This technique can work on any variety of veggies, red peppers just happen to be my favorite. Make sure you don’t seed the peppers until the end or they will be more difficult to handle over the flame.
