The first time I made Roasted Red Peppers at home, I couldn’t believe how much better they tasted compared to the jarred ones I usually bought. I had a few red bell peppers sitting on my counter and decided to roast them in the oven just to see what would happen. As they cooked, the skins blistered and the peppers released this incredible sweet, smoky aroma that filled my kitchen. When I peeled off the charred skins and tasted one, it was soft, slightly caramelized, and bursting with flavor. Since then, roasting red peppers has become one of my favorite simple kitchen tricks.
