Roasted Red Bell Pepper Purée in Extra-Virgin Olive Oil

Roasted Red Bell Pepper Purée in Extra-Virgin Olive Oil is a versatile Mediterranean-style condiment made from roasted red bell peppers blended into a smooth purée and preserved in extra-virgin olive oil; it's often used as a spread, pasta sauce base, or flavoring in antipasti and sandwiches. It is relatively energy-dense because of the oil, providing 30.2g of fat per 100g, and delivers the characteristic sweet pepper flavor along with the silky texture from the olive oil. Nutrition-wise it contributes healthy monounsaturated fats from the olive oil and provides vitamin C and carotenoid pigments (antioxidant compounds) from the peppers, while being low in protein and modest in fiber. In terms of overall health characteristics, it’s a flavorful way to add vegetable-derived antioxidants and healthy fat to dishes, though versions with less added oil or packed in water/brine are leaner options.
