Author Notes
I love roasted peppers. Many of my friends had only eaten the store-bought jar brands. When they try these they can't believe the difference! Now I'm asked to jar extra whenever I make a batch. My favorite are the orange colored peppers, I find they take on a "fruity" flavor when roasted. I'm also listing the marinade ingredients I use when jarring. —A Guy Who Cooks

I like my peppers marinated so I've included ingredients below
- Marinade
-
Combine olive oil with canola oil for a 50/50 mix (canola oil prevents olive oil from hardening in fridge)
-
Add peppers, garlic, basil, oregano and salt, to taste
-
Spoon into jars or plastic containers, seal and refrigerate
-
These are not meant for long-term storage, only about 1-2 weeks in the fridge (if they're not devoured way before that)
