  • Join my online French cooking classes: learn.thefrenchcookingacademy... In French cooking if you are making a dish that contain Bell Peppers or Capsicums, the Peppers have to be peeled before they can be cut.
    Note: Leaving the skin on Bell peppers does not bring any enhancement to your dish. This is why for French salads we even peel raw peppers which allow you to enjoy the taste and texture of the ingredient.
    Technical notes for Bell peppers in the oven:
    1 turn on an set your oven at 250 degree Celsius.
    2 Brush your raw peppers with oil to give them a fine glaze.
    3 when the oven is at temperature place your peppers on a baking tray in the oven for 5 to 10 minutes.
    4 when done take the peppers out of the oven and transfer them in a salad bowl.
    5 cover the bowl with cling/plastic wrap. and leave the Peppers in the bowl for 5 or more minutes.
    6 finally take the peppers out of the bowl and they are now ready to be peeled.

    I've read trough the comments. Please don't mind the haters. Your video is helpful for its purpose. Some people have no manners and don't have a life and are just plain mean little people. People can't just be thankful and appreciate the good things, because they are full of anger and frustration and their brain is focused on the negative things.
    Blessings to you and I wish you well! ❤

    My daughter has crohns and skins on vegetables is very hard to digest. So some people can’t have skins but want the vegetables. Thank you for this !

    As Eric Cox said on how to remove the stem is spot on. I still will use a paring knife. But...what the video needs to have shown is that barring cutting the pepper for "decorative" purposes, just cut the bottom, then slice through one of the folds between the faces of the pepper, then roll it open. Now you gut the inner white connective membrane with any seeds left off the pepper. You can choose to do it all at once, or do it individually. I do it first. Once done, turn the peppe's inner side down into the cutting board; then, cut between the faces of the pepper right at the folds. Now you take the piece of flexible pepper in your hand, and drape it over your fingers, to bend it and exposed the left over skin, and remove it with the vegetable peeler. Outcome; practically 99 to 100% of tough outer skin removed! That is the proper manner its done in French Cuisine. How do I know this? Learned it from one of the greatest chefs in the world. Jacques Pepin. That's how he teaches it and does it. The skinning of tomatoes is another of the small details that well show the pedigree of the chef and restaurant. You would be surprised how many top restaurants omit these two little details. And yes...I have seen the show "Hell's Kitchen" omit these steps, and nothing is said about it. Another chef I very much love for his skills and philosophy of cooking is Thomas Keller. Quote from him..."Peeling tomatoes is not necessarily something that you have to do, but it’s a technique of refinement.” Enough said!

    5:40. Tip, to take the stem off: In stead of cutting, place fingertips of both hands on the bottom of the pepper, your thumbs on top. use your thumbs to push the top *down*, into the pepper. The top will break in a circle around the stem, just as if you had cut it.
    It takes much less time, and gives you the exact same result.

    If you are going to seperate anyway, you can make things easier by cutting off, the bulb first, that way you can peel all of it and the stem is autamatically left.

    I have always loved paprika, but my stomach can't stomach it (I had to, sorry 😂). I have suspected it might be the skin and tried pouring boiling water over it in a dish like I do with tomatoes. The skin comes off the tomatoes perfectly like that, but the paprika wouldn't peel.
    This is obviously working, so I'm excited to go shopping for some of these delicious vegetables and giving it a shot! Thank you VERY MUCH for this video! 🎉 Big 👍 to you!
    P.S. I hope it was the skin that caused my stomach the problem 🙏

    The best and often most overlooked method is to just see how the native people prepare the ingredient in the country of origin. In Mexico they roast and remove the skin then cut out and throw away the seeds. This is the same and holds true for all nightshades including tomatoes and eggplant. It takes effort but there’s a very noticeable difference in the taste, mouth feel and digestion.

    Thank you for the tip about peeling raw bell peppers. However, your cutting technique for the raw bell pepper can be improved. Bell peppers have three or four faces depending on the sex. Slice off each flat face leaving behind the stem, the seeds, and the membranes. Stack the faces and julienne. Bundle the sticks and chop into cubes. This technique is more time-efficient and results in a better product.

      I have never peeled these peppers (thanks Aunt Bobbie), but I never liked the peel- it can be tough. I think I can now put diced peppers in my pasta salads (I still love pasta and just try to refrain from overdoing it!)
      This looks like it won't be too hard.😂
      I thank you❣

    Just one correction? Lol ok, just one, it took 4:17 seconds to tell me that putting it in the oven on the highest heat and sweating it makes the skin soft enough to remove completely when cooking and use a peeler if you haven't got a clue.

      @@AnthonyWilson-jl5pq He did say Mexico and then he said South America and he is right. He did not say Mexico was in South America! This is why he said it like he did: The original term, chilli (now chile in Mexico) came from the Nahuatl word chīlli, denoting a larger Capsicum variety cultivated at least since 3000 BC, as evidenced by remains found in pottery from Puebla and Oaxaca. Different varieties were cultivated in South America, where they are known as ajíes (singular ají), from the Quechua term for Capsicum.

    When you say 5-10 minutes in a 250 oven, are you referring to 250F or 250C? I left the peppers on the oven for over 20 minutes at 250F and they were still firm and not really cooked at all and the skins were not browned like your pepper and the pepper retained its original shape, also unlike the pepper in your video.
