Diets Living out of town presents some unique challenges, so I have a couple of rules that I’ve implemented to make things a bit easier.
Most important rule: whenever I see a product that’s new to me and happens to be kosher, I buy it first and figure out what to do with it later.
That’s how I ended up with these Trader Joe’s spice blends — and I loved them so much that I try to incorporate them into lots of my recipes.
Yields 1-2 pound (910-gram) container
2 large tomatoes
2 red bell peppers
2 jalapeño peppers
1 leek
1/8 cup Gefen Olive Oil
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 cloves garlic
1/2 teaspoon Pereg Smoked Paprika
pinch salt
pinch pepper
Trader Joe’s Aglio Olio, to taste (optional)
Trader Joe’s Smoky & Hot Chile Powder, to taste (optional)
Grill the vegetables on a charcoal grill until partially blackened but still soft.
Remove the cores from the peppers. Remove the seeds as well if you want less heat.
Pulse all ingredients in a food processor until it’s mostly blended but still has some texture.
