How to Make Roasted Red Pepper Cream Sauce

Once you have all of your ingredients ready to go it’s time to make the sauce! First, start by combining all of the ingredients in a sauce pot. Then, cover the pot and bring to a simmer over medium heat.

Once the mixture is simmering lower the temperature and let simmer for 5 minutes. Stir frequently and be careful to not burn the cream.

Then, after 5 minutes, remove from the heat and blend using an immersion blender, blender or food processor. Be very cautious with this step to avoid burning yourself. Use immediately or let cool and then store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days in an airtight container such as a mason jar. This recipe is not shelf stable!

How to Store Homemade Sauce

Homemade sauces should be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. I prefer to store my sauces in glass mason jars since they do not stain and are very easy to clean. When ready to use the sauce, only heat what you are going to use right away.
