Grilled are a delicious addition to many dishes, adding a smoky and sweet flavor. Preserving these peppers in oil is a great way to enjoy them all year round, even when they are out of season. The process is simple and can be done at home with just a few ingredients. In this article, we will guide you through the steps to preserve grilled peppers in oil.

Firstly, you will need to gather the necessary ingredients. You will need a variety of peppers – red, yellow, and orange bell peppers work well, as they are both flavorful and visually appealing. Additionally, you will need olive oil, garlic cloves, salt, and dried herbs such as oregano, thyme, and rosemary.

The first step in preserving grilled peppers in oil is grilling or roasting the peppers. Preheat your grill or oven to high heat. Wash the peppers thoroughly, and remove the stems and seeds. Cut the peppers into quarters or halves, depending on their size. Grill or roast the peppers until the skin is blistered and charred, giving them that irresistible smoky flavor. This should take approximately 10-15 minutes.

Once the peppers are grilled, carefully transfer them to a bowl and cover them with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel. This will allow the steam to loosen the skin, making it easier to peel off. Let the peppers sit for about 10 minutes.

After the peppers have cooled slightly, peel off the charred skin. It should come off easily. You can use a knife or your fingers to gently remove the skin. Do not rinse the peppers under water, as this will wash away their delicious flavor.

Next, slice the peeled peppers into thin strips or dice them, depending on your preference. Transfer the sliced peppers to a clean, sterilized jar.

Now it is time to prepare the oil mixture. In a small saucepan, heat the olive oil over low heat. Add the garlic cloves, salt, and dried herbs to the oil and let it infuse for a few minutes. This will enhance the flavor of the preserved peppers.

Pour the infused oil mixture over the sliced peppers in the jar, ensuring all the peppers are covered. Use a clean utensil to gently press down on the peppers, removing any air bubbles. Make sure the peppers are completely submerged in the oil to prevent spoilage.

Seal the jar tightly and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, store the jar in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours before using. The flavors will continue to develop and intensify over time.

Preserved grilled peppers in oil can be used in a variety of dishes. They make a tasty addition to sandwiches, pizzas, salads, pasta dishes, and even as a topping for bruschetta. The oil can also be used in dressings or as a flavorful marinade.

It is important to note that the preserved peppers should be stored in the refrigerator and consumed within a month for optimal freshness and safety. Always use a clean utensil when removing peppers from the jar to prevent contamination.

Preserving grilled peppers in oil is a simple yet rewarding process. By following these steps, you can enjoy the flavors of all year round. So fire up the grill, get those peppers ready, and start preserving!
