Big Guy walked into the house with an armload of snackable peppers from @carondeletgarden. The plants love the hot temperature, and I suspect this will be one of many trips from the garden with a harvest.
Since I mentioned the heat, I wanted to use the peppers in a dish that did not require turning on the oven. I went to a summer @inagarten classic recipe and decided to make roasted red pepper hummus. It truly is an easy recipe as the ingredients go into the food processor together and within minutes are ready to serve. I usually make my hummus the day prior to using it so the flavors of the garbanzo beans, garlic, roasted red pepper, lemon, hot sauce, salt, and pepper meld into the perfect dip. We just happened to have a couple of bottles of @ponzivineyards 2023 Pinot Gris that we picked up from the amazing folks @winemerchantltd. The wine was the perfect accompaniment to the hummus with bright acidity and notes of citrus and fresh pears, and the finish was perfect with tastes of mango and caramelized vanilla. What a lovely addition to a wonderful meal.
