This cozy pepper cream is one of the many favorite recipes of my children but also of my husband. They eat it over bruschetta or with pasta. It will soon be your favorite as well because it is made from ingredients that are fresh, and in season, from peppers to the onion, and above all, it is made with the delicious Sicilian extra virgin olive oil.

Which peppers to choose?
Peppers can now be found in the supermarket all year round, which is great, but the best season to buy peppers in is from mid-September onwards; the peppers are ripe and perfect to taste.
You can eat them alone but also cooked in countless recipes, they are an extremely versatile ingredient.
The key to a great dish is to use quality ingredients. When buying peppers, choose them smooth, with a firm skin. This will not only make the peppers easy to cut, but it is also a sign of freshness and aroma. Avoid wrinkled peppers or peppers with dark spots because it means they are long past the point of ripeness. If the pepper has green or yellow spots near the stem, it is not fully ready to use.
The color of peppers you choose depends on the use you want to make of them. Regardless of the color, the classic pepper comes from the same plant. The color depends on two factors: when they were harvested and how ripe they are. At first, they are all green, then they turn yellow, orange until they reach the red color when they are fully ripe. I use both yellow and red peppers.

Then with an immersion hand blender make a smooth sauce. I have my tireless
