Re:Question Bell Peppers

[Guest guest]

This isn't about freezing, but a woman I dated a while ago wouldn't eat

vegetables unless it was in a stew or dish that contained meat. She refused to

eat salads too. Only vegetable she would eat were potatoe chips (French-fries).

Your son might enjoy this idea, it is the only salad I have ever seen her eat.

Dice up the peppers, and include yelloow, erd and green. Then take a few pieces

of pickled ginger, dice them up and add to the peppers. The sweatness of the

peppers is nicely enhanced by the flavour of the ginger, and the pickled ginger

adds a delicious tartness to the dish. Hopefully this will help him consume your

peppers.

 

" I saw several recipes for stuffed bell peppers in the files, but what I need

to know is how I can freeze them. Our nearby grocery store will take stuff

off the produce counter and sell it cheap - give it a chance to be bought

and used instead of thrown away - and the other day I got 6 beautiful bell

peppers for 69 cents! My son will NOT eat them - he doesn't like peppers at

all, and since it's just me and him, I'd like to make the recipe and then

freeze them somehow. Anyone have any tips? "

Hi, I just wash, de-seed (if there is such a word), and then dice up the bell

peppers. Bag them, and toss them in the freezer. You can also after dicing

them, put them on a cookie sheet, making sure they are all evenly placed, then

freeze them that way, I think it is called flash freezing. Then bag them up and

place them back in the freezer. It works, either way.

If you want to freeze the bell peppers alone, first prepare them (cut out the

seeds, stem etc., wash them) and put them in some kind of baggy or container

(air tight). I've heard you can " blanche " food before freezing by boiling them

for a few minutes then freezing... I have never attempted this, but maybe it

helps with the flavor? Anyways, I personally wouldn't want to keep my frozen

for much longer than a month or two, I figure it would lose flavor, but I don't

know this for a fact.

 

If you freeze them after being cooked, like if you make stuffed peppers (I do

all the time), then just package them up and freeze, then re-heat when the time

comes like anything else. You may want to thaw first in the fridge for a day.

I think dishes with green peppers taste better as left-overs because it gives

the peppers a chance to really come out with their flavor.

 

Hope this helps.
