What it is
These are sweet red and yellow bell peppers that have been roasted to bring out their natural sweetness and smoky flavor. The roasting process softens the peppers and intensifies their taste. They are typically packed in a brine or oil to preserve them. This convenient preparation means they are ready to use straight from the package.

You can use these roasted peppers directly from the jar or can. Drain them if packed in brine or oil. They are excellent added to green salads for a sweet and smoky element.

Their tender texture means they require no further cooking.
