Gloria Goodtaste Version of Chef DiGregorio Pepernata with a Crostini and Whipped Ricotta Cheese
About the Recipe: Roasting the red peppers created a rich caramelized flavor and vibrant color. The summer sweet peppers balanced the red wine vinegar, blending the capers, fennel, and shallots. It makes an easy appetizer since it can be prepared ahead of time. I also love the idea that you can use it to top any meat or fish course, and it’s perfect for pasta.
