Title: Easy smoked peppers experiment
Post by: Suzie-Q on October 31, 2015, 01:12:05 PM

I bought a bag of fresh Anaheim chilies at the farmers' market and looked up smoking them on the web.  I found an easy recipe so off I went.  I washed & dried peppers, put in SI#1 at 200 degrees for 4 hours using pecan chips.  Since I don't have a dehydrator, I put the smoked peppers in a low 140 degree oven for between 8-12 hours, turning every 2-3 hours.  I took them out as they became dark, dried, but bendable.  The recipe says to keep them in a zip lock plastic bag. Rehydrate chilies by pulling the stem & seeds out then simmering in a cup of hot broth or water for 20 minutes.  They sure smell good!

Awesome looking peppers!

The wife and I have used oven roasted chiles in a white chicken chili with navy beans and cilantro.

I'm making a big pot of hamburger vegetable soup tonight.  I threw in a couple of stemmed, deseeded and chopped dried smoked peppers; my new secret ingredient.  That white chili recipe sounds good too grogorat, share the recipe?
