Hey all,
Just a little warning when roasting peppers - if you get any kind of wild
hair (one of those little sayings I have no desire to know the origin of)
and decide to roast bulgarian carrot peppers, it might be best to poke hole
or two in then first.  Of course I didn't do this and instead of the
usually uneventful deflation of the pepper during the roasting process,
they exploded ALL over the inside of the oven.  Kind of like an old
pressure cooker gone haywire.  With a few, all that was left was the skin.
I was amazed at how thick and tough it felt after roasting.  I did manage
to save some of the pulp and will figure out what to do with it some time
later.
	A question - is it okay to roast, peel and freeze peppers?  I popped them
(I was doing alot more than just the carrot peppers) into a big ziplock and
put them in the freezer.  I hope they'll still be as tasty once they are
defrosted as they smelled before they were frozen!
	I hope everyone had a great weekend.  
	Suz
  
Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons. Scuz like you are crunchy and
taste good with ketchup.
