Roasted Peppers: How to Roast a Pepper on a Gas Range,Freshly roasted peppers are wonderfully flavorful, and not nearly as difficult to prepare as you might imagine. 🙂 Give it a try! Requires gas range.,I’ve done this same method of roasting before, but I never thought of using one of my long forks to hold on to the pepper, or the trick of putting it in a ziploc bag for 15 min in order to allow it to cook longer & make the peel come off completely effortlessly! Amazing what just a couple simple tweaks can accomplish when it comes to getting something done well and extra efficiently besides! Thank you so much! Harmony Jacobson West St. Paul, MN,I am a total roasting novice. I wanted to make marinated peppers, so I tried this. used salad tongs. Note that the pepper spits and crackles as it blackens. It took about 7 minutes per pepper, then I put in a bowl with a lid. I left the one in there while I cooked the other one. I don’t think 15 minutes helped the skin peeling any more than the 7 minutes. But I would never use a plastic bag. After I skinned, deseeded and sliced, I put in a mason jar with garlic and salt in layers and covered with olive oil. Put in the fridge to marinate.
