Red peppers are roasted, peeled and left in a garlicky brine to make this sugar-free Armenian winter preserve. Roasting gives the peppers a deep, smoky flavor.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Roast the peppers

15 min

Arrange the red peppers on a baking pan and roast in an oven preheated to 220°C / 430°F for 15 minutes, until the skins blister and blacken.

2

Peel and cut into strips

10 min

Peel the roasted peppers, remove the seeds and cut the flesh into strips.

3

Make the brine and fill the jars

10 min

Bring the vinegar, water, salt and bay leaf to a boil. Pack the pepper strips and garlic into jars, then pour the liquid over them.

4

Leave to stand

10 min

Close the lids, let the jars cool at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 10 minutes.

Reminder

Resting the roasted peppers in a plastic bag for 10 minutes before peeling makes their skins much easier to remove. With no added sugar, these pickles can be freely enjoyed by people following a diet suitable for diabetes.
