I tried to come back... couldn't comment.??<br/><br/>Leanne... I like the little specs of burnt skin too sometimes and there's a lot of people who put them in bags. I just burn my fingers!<br/><br/>Maria... never heard of that but it makes sense. I'm not sure if they last longer or not but we're still eating peppers from last year and they taste great!<br/><br/>jennconspiracy: we don't add anything to the peppers to top them off but there is juice from the peppers and as you push them down to pack the jars, the juices sort of top the jar off. No vinegar, no salt. I'm not sure about the acid balance.. good question but we've never had any problems.<br/><br/>Thanks Cherrye!<br/><br/>Amanda: yes on the insane part. Pepper Cooker's kid? try saying that 3 times fast!<br/><br/>Darius: the funny thing is we usually just open a jar add some oil, salt, pepper and garlic and eat them with bread. Maybe someone should post a recipe...<br/><br/>Yankeesoaper... nice try!:)<br/><br/>Sally: it's safe to say there's a few jars down there:)<br/><br/>You got it Dawn... lots of shelves in the basement! Roasted Red Peppers and Eggs? I'll have to give that a try.<br/><br/>Yes Scintilla.... I think we are! Same day? now that's insane! CEF – Thank you:)

My Nonna used to wrap the hot peppers straight into newspaper to help the steam loosen the skin before peeling. Are all Calabrese cut from the same cloth???

My fav is peppers and eggs.<br/>Love how the whole family is involved in this one. <br/>Where do you store all these jarred goods? You must have one heck of a pantry or basement shelving system going on. I love roasted peppers. My fav is peppers and eggs.

We always have some on hand. There's so much you can do with them. And they're great to have on hand for company, just add some garlic, oil and bread and you have a great treat.
