?This is a recipe for a flavorful and colorful salsa made with red bell peppers, pine nuts, and fresh herbs. The salsa is perfect for serving with chips or crackers, or as a condiment for tacos or burritos.
Bake the bell peppers in the oven at 250 - 275 oC until a major part of the skin is blackened. This normally requires 20 - 30 minutes. Do NOT use a grill.
Transfer the bell peppers to a paper bag, close it, open again after 15 minutes and remove the black skin and the seeds from the bell peppers. Instead of using a paper bag, you can wrap the baked peppers in household tissue.
Process the baked and deseeded bell peppers, the garlic, the jalapeño peppers and the pine nuts in a food processor for 30 - 45 seconds.
Add spices, and, if necessary to get the right consistency, also some water.
The salsa can be kept in the refrigerator for up to a week but should not be frozen.
