Recipe Notes
The peperonata is great also adding pitted and sliced olives.
It can be served warm and cold. Warm it is great as a side dish with baccalà (dry salted cod fish), in a hamburger, with meat balls or also with polenta (porridge of cornmeal).
Cold it is great as antipasto or on a toasted slice of bread as bruschetta.
