Here you have 3 ideas on how to serve Piquillo Pepper Preserve:
- The sophisticated way: In an oven-proof dish, place a camembert cheese wheel, add the preserve on top and bake for 3 -5 minutes; just to soften the cheese a little. Serve with crackers or bread.
- The easy way: In a serving dish, place a 8 oz cream cheese bar, add the pepper preserve on top, and serve with crackers or bread. This one is my favorite!
- The stress-free way: put it in a nice bowl with some crackers or bread. Serve with different types of cheeses around. I usually use camembert, goat and blue cheese.
I stored the pepper preserve in a jar with a lid that I had on hand. It can last up to 3 weeks in the refrigerator… but it never lasts more than one week in my home!
