Final Notes for the Roasted Pepper Sauce Recipe
➡️ Roasted peppers are used to cook various tasty dishes and one of the most popular recipes is the roasted red pepper sauce. It’s used as a dipping sauce for different food types such as fish, chicken, pork, pasta, and more.
➡️ The most common bell pepper type for cooking this sauce is red pepper because of its sweet taste, but any other bell pepper variety can be used.
➡️ Cooking the roasted red pepper sauce is very easy and requires a short time, especially when you are going to use frozen or canned roasted peppers.
➡️ As for preparing the peppers at home, I prefer to roast them on the charcoal or wood grill whenever I have the opportunity for the smoky taste that gives a special note to the sauce. If the weather does not allow you or you don’t have a grill at hand, the peppers can be baked in the oven on baking paper. The taste is very similar, except for the smoky touch. They can be also roasted on the gas stove over an open flame, but this method produces a lot of smoke, so I don’t really recommend using it inside.
➡️ My recipe for the roasted red pepper sauce is based on a sauce of Mediterranean origin. It’s prepared similarly, with small local variations, in countries such as Italy, Greece, or Spain.
➡️ The predominant flavors in the sauce are rosemary and garlic. You can adjust the amount used according to your taste and the dried rosemary can be replaced with a sprig of fresh rosemary if you have it at hand, which is then removed from the sauce after it has dropped.
➡️ The final taste of the sauce is sweet and sour and the use of sugar and apple cider vinegar aims to change it according to personal preferences. However, don’t forget that red bell pepper is naturally sweet.
