A recipe from Ina Garten the Barefoot Contessa from the Food Network. I watched the show and had to save this recipe for safekeeping as it looks like the perfect accompaniment to soup, salad, meat or poultry dishes. It is less harsh than her jalepeno version. It looks great. It was on her Potluck episode in which she makes this and takes it to a friend. Prep time includes letting it sit at room temp per her instructions. Yum. Enjoy. ChefDLH
