What is the best way to cook jalapeno peppers?

Answer 1

Stuffing them with cheese, battering them with a light batter, and frying them. WOW

Answer 2

Sauté the jalapenos in olive oil to get the hot oil spread out, and make some salsa. Diced tomatoes, onions, cilantro, green peppers, garlic, just a little bit of corn, lime juice, a little vinegar. I stir it all in with heat, but don’t cook it. Add the cilantro last, and turn off the burner. Oh Yeah!

Answer 3

It depends on what you're going to do with them.

One thing many cooks do with peppers is char them by holding them over a flame until the skin is black. Usually I do this with Poblano peppers, but put them on a pan under my broiler.

As I said, let the skin it black, then wrap them in a damp towel for 20 minutes, which helps loosen the skin. After 20 min, take them out, scrape the skin off, and take out the fleshy, seedy part with all the veins on the inside. Then you can make salsa with them, or whatever.

You can also use fresh jalapeños in many dishes, depending on how much heat you want. Jalapeños are not one of my favorite peppers, not because they're hot, I love hot peppers, they just don't please my palate, unless they're chipotles, which is basically a smoked jalapeño.

Happy cooking!

Answer 4

Pickle them! Make a brine w/ salt and vinegar, load the sterilized jars w/ sliced or halved peppers, then fill w/ boiling brine. Top w/ sterilized lids/rings and return to boiling water to process.

Answer 5

Are you eating them or are you mixing it with some kind of entree? Most people I know roast them. I have seen them pan fried but with other foods like vegetables and shrimp.
