Instructions

  1. Halve the peppers, place on a baking sheet and grill in the oven at 200 ° C top heat until the skin blisters and turns black.
  2. In the meantime, cut the remaining ingredients into small pieces.
  3. Peel the skin off the peppers and cut the pods into small pieces as well. Put the ingredients in a saucepan and cook for about ten minutes. Then puree and cook in a casserole dish at 200 ° C in the oven for about an hour. Finally puree again and pour into glasses.
  4. Tip: Ajvar is easy to prepare and store in the refrigerator. The sharpness can be varied. I could imagine giving Ajvar away as well.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
