Roasting Peppers
You can grill peppers over charcoal, over an open flame, or under the broiler.
For the broiler method, preheat the broiler.
Place the peppers on a baking sheet or broiler pan.
Broil, turning them with tongs and watching carefully, until the skin blisters and blackens, 10-12 minutes.
Transfer the peppers to a plastic bag or a bowl, and seal. Let stand until cool to the touch. Peel and seed.
