Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper.

Place the whole bell peppers, jalapeños, and red chili peppers on the prepared cookie sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.

Roast in the oven for about 30 minutes, turning halfway through, until the peppers are blistered and slightly charred.

Allow the peppers to cool completely.

Cut off the tops of the peppers, slice them in half, and scrape out the seeds and white membrane. Discard these parts.

Place the flesh of the peppers into a food processor. Add the honey, rice wine vinegar, salt, and fresh ground pepper.

Pulse until the mixture reaches your desired consistency.

Transfer the relish to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Pepper Roasting Technique 🔥
Char peppers directly over an open flame or under the broiler, rotating until the skin is completely blackened for maximum smoky flavor and easy skin removal.
Vinegar Balance Magic 🧴
Always taste and adjust the rice wine vinegar gradually, as its acidity can make or break the relish's overall flavor profile.
Pepper Seed Management 🌶️
Remove seeds from jalapeños for a milder relish, or keep them for extra heat - the seeds and inner membranes contain most of the pepper's spiciness.
Optimal Pepper Mixing 🎨
Use a mix of different colored bell peppers to create a visually stunning relish that also provides a more complex flavor profile.
Storage and Marination Trick 🫙
Let the finished relish sit in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld and intensify.
