Peeling bell peppers – flame torch method

1

Wash the paprika peppers and pat them dry with a paper towel

2

Hold a paprika pepper with tongs or a skewer and carefully pass it over the flame of a torch, moving it back and forth to evenly blister the skin

3

Continue to rotate the paprika pepper until the entire surface is charred and blistered

4

Once charred, immediately transfer the paprika pepper to a bowl and cover it tightly with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel. This allows the steam to loosen the skin, making it easier to peel

5

After 5-10 minutes, remove the plastic wrap or towel and use your fingers or a paper towel to peel away the charred skin, revealing the smooth flesh underneath.
