How to roast chili peppers

Preheat the oven to 500 degrees Fahrenheit (about 250 degrees Celcius). Place the chili peppers on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Make one slit on the the side of each of the peppers. Place the baking sheet on the top shelf of the oven and roast the peppers for 8 to 10 minutes, turning them every 2 minutes so that they are baked uniformly, on all sides. Remove the peppers from the oven and put them in a plastic bag. Seal the bag and leave the peppers in there for 6 to 8 minutes. The peppers will "sweat" and this will make their skin come off easily. Take the peppers out of the bag and carefully remove their skin. The peppers are now ready to be used.

Note: When finished, make sure you wash with soap and warm water your hands and any other areas (chopping boards, etc) that came in contact with the chili peppers. Chili peppers can be quite hot and may cause problems when in contact with your eyes.
