– 1/2 unit of green pepper, skinless, cut into strips
– 1/2 red pepper, skinless, cut into strips
Provençal sauce ingredients:
– 1 clove(s) of garlic, cut into strips
– 2 sprigs of chopped parsley
– 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
– 1/2 spoon(s) of vinegar
– salt to taste
– pepper to taste
PREPARATION:
- Separate the ingredients and utensils for the recipe.
- It is best to let this recipe sit in the refrigerator for 2 or 3 days.
- Start by preparing the pepper (see preparation) – the technique with the tastiest result for removing the skin from the pepper is to burn it until the skin is completely singed, but it is also possible to use a traditional oven or a microwave so that the pepper skin can be cooked easily.
PREPARATION:
Peppers – Roast/Grill:
- Place the ice water in a bowl and set aside.
- Using the stove flame or blowtorch.
- The most common way to use this technique is to place the pepper directly over the stove flame and turn it until all the skin is burned: If you use this method, line the area around the stove with aluminum foil to make cleanup easier.
- Another method is to use a blowtorch to achieve the same result: string the pepper onto a fork and burn the skin with the blowtorch’s flame.
- When the shell is burned, place it in the bowl with water and ice.
- Using a small knife, scrape the pepper to remove the skin – if any burnt pieces remain, it doesn’t matter, this will give the vegetable a smoky flavour.
- Dry the pepper, place it on a cutting board, open it in half and remove the seeds and white parts.
- Cut the pepper into strips lengthwise and set aside.
- Then prepare the sauce.
Provençal sauce:
- Wash and peel the garlic. On a cutting board, slice the garlic into thin slices and then cut the slices into strips.
- Wash and dry the parsley, chop it.
- Place all the ingredients of the sauce in a bowl large enough to contain all the ingredients of the recipe: chopped garlic, parsley, extra virgin olive oil, vinegar, salt, pepper and mix.
Colorful pepper appetizer:
- In the bowl with the Provençal sauce, add the pepper strips and mix well.
- Check salt and pepper and adjust if necessary.
FINALIZATION AND ASSEMBLY:
- Place the colorful pepper appetizer Provençal style, place in an airtight container and keep in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours before serving, but ideally keep for at least 2 or 3 days.
