Method
Roasting the peppers (optional)
- If you do not have jarred roasted peppers, roast them yourself before preparing the spread. On a gas stovetop: wash the pepper and place it directly over the flame or on a griddle.
- Roast it, turning it constantly, until the skin is black and blistered all over.
- In the oven: preheat the oven to 200 °C.
- Wash the pepper, cut it in half, and place it on a baking tray with the skin facing up.
- Drizzle it with a little oil.
- Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, turning it from time to time, until the skin blackens in some spots.
- Once roasted, remove the burnt skin, seeds, and internal filaments, and cut it into strips.
Cheese and pepper spread
- In a deep bowl, mix the cream cheese with the roasted red peppers.
- Blend the mixture with an immersion blender until you obtain a uniform texture and extract all the flavor of the pepper. If you do not have an immersion blender, use a regular blender.
