Roasted red peppers with feta cheese and parsley # 9


As simple as it is delicious, roasted peppers turn a not that special ingredient into something really great as soon as you roast it and it doesn´t matter how you do it, you can roast it in a pan, on the grill, in an oven or even using a blowtorch or putting them on the burner in case you have a gas stove. Then peel it or even leave a bit of the charred skin on an it will taste completely different.

Of course there are dishes where you want a raw pepper but for most warm or mediterranian dishes i prefer the roasted kind. For the feta cheese I always try to go for the real thing, that is Greek feta, it is by far the safest choiche, but if you have a good cheese shop around then it can be worth a shot to ask if they have any local varieties. I have had the pleasure of tasting some non Greek feta cheeses that have been of super high quality so it is worth a try. Ok, let´s make some tapas!
