"Tony Soprano's" Roasted Peppers
serves 6
6 peppers
1/2 cup fine quality olive oil
3 tbs. golden raisins
2 tbs. pine nuts
1 tsp. chopped Italian parsley
1/8 tsp. minced garlic
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat broiler. Broil peppers, blacken skin on all sides. Remove and place in paper bag as so to "steam" the skins free from the flesh.
When cool, remove skin, stems and seeds, cut lengthwise into 1/4 " strips. Let skins stand in colander for approx. 3 hours or until most of the moisture has drained off.
Combine all ingredients and let stand at room temp for 1 hour. (don't forget some fresh decent Italian bread!)
