Pimentos


Pimentos

A pimento is simply a blanched, skinned sweet red pepper. They are easy to make. Stick a red pepper on a serving fork. Char the skin over an open flame (stove) until the skin turns black. Turn off the flame, put the pepper in a paper or plastic bag and close it for about 2 or 3 minutes, the pepper will steam a bit through its own heat. At that point slide off the skins under running water. The skins will slide right off. Tear open and remove the seeds and you have pimentos.
