ROASTED RED BELL PEPPERS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450F degrees.
• Wash peppers and cut in half.
• Remove seeds and stems.
• Place upside down (skin side up) on a cookie sheet coated with olive oil spray.
• Bake for 10-15 minutes or so, until skin of pepper is seriously black.
• Make sure there are no sparks or actively burning ashes on the peppers and place peppers in a brown bag for about 10-15 minutes. This steams the peppers so the skins easily peel off. Rinsing peppers takes away all the roasted flavor, so don't let me catch you doing that.
• Let cool so you can touch them.
• Skin will peel off easily.
• Cut halves into strips, or however you need them to be cut.
• Now you know how to roast a red pepper!
• Good for: Chicken, cheese sauces, tomato sauces, topped on foccacia bread, or a million other things!
• You can also roast a pepper by placing it directly on the burner of a gas stove (NOT ELECTRIC!) turning with tongs every few minutes till skin is black. Continue with paper bag step.

ROASTED RED BELL PEPPER-BLOODY MARY SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the broiler.
• 2. Place the bell peppers on the baking sheet and set on the rack closest to the broiler unit. Broil the peppers for 6 to 8 minutes, turning them as necessary, until the skins are puffed and blackened on all sides.
• 3. Remove the bell peppers from the broiler, place them in a bag, and seal the bag immediately. Allow the peppers to steam for 10 minutes. When they are cool enough to handle, slip off the skins and remove the stems and seeds. Rinse the bell peppers, pat dry, and set aside on paper toweling.
• 4. While the bell peppers cool, heat the oil in the saucepan over medium heat and sauté the onion until it is translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Raise the temperature to high, add the tomato juice, and simmer until the juice has reduced by half, about 3 minutes.
• 5. Transfer the bell peppers, tomato juice, and onion to the bowl of the food processor fitted with the steel blade. Process until the sauce is smooth. Add the horseradish, vodka, lemon zest, and juice, and pulse three times to incorporate the ingredients. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
