The peppers can be chopped or left whole, depending on preference. The olive oil not only preserves the peppers, extending their shelf life, but also absorbs their heat, making it a spicy addition to various dishes. Typically, these preserved chilies are used in pastas, pizzas, sandwiches, and marinades. They offer a balanced taste—spicy, slightly tangy, and rich—perfect for adding a kick to both Italian and Mediterranean recipes.
Ingredients:
The chili peppers will be ready in 2 to 3 weeks
