I've got them in the fridge marinating in olive oil and fresh garlic as we speak. Also soaked and boiled a pot full of organic garbanzos today, along with putting together another big batch of minestrone. It's been a nice, productive, aromatic day here in the house.TomOfMainehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16854509587311392744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776940632259276511.post-20190791339692874752009-01-22T16:06:00.000-05:002009-01-22T16:06:00.000-05:00I always roast my own peppers in the oven. It's much cheaper and it's easy: just cut them in half, take the seeds out, spray with olive oil, and bake at 400 for 45 minutes. And then they haven't been sitting in oil and preservatives for who months. I have never tried the stove top method, but blackening something looks fun.Maryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17546256738190301358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776940632259276511.post-61272118244479250592009-01-22T12:07:00.000-05:002009-01-22T12:07:00.000-05:00Thanks for the roasted pepper link, after going to shaws last week and seeing that my usual jars of roasted peppers in oil jumped from less than 3 dollars to over 5 dollars per jar, I knew it was time to start making them ourselves.TomOfMainehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16854509587311392744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776940632259276511.post-5521577533211674082009-01-15T07:29:00.000-05:002009-01-15T07:29:00.000-05:00What a coincidence, we were both whipping up batches of minestrone on Tuesday, I used Quinoa-Corn pasta elbows in ours, which went very nicely. Haven't tried it with taters yet, sounds good.TomOfMainehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16854509587311392744noreply@blogger.com
