Do you prefer to:
(1) Stuff the peppers raw and then bake?


-OR-

(2) Blanche the peppers before stuffing - and then bake?
(2a) If blanching, what is your preferred method & for how long?



*~*~*~*~*
The rice in the stuffing . . . do you prefer to:

(a) cook it before adding to the meat mixture?

-OR-

(b) add it to the meat mixture raw, and then bake-cook it in the oven?
(bi) If so, how long?

In the past, I have not blanched them; however, earlier today, I read that blanching the peppers helps with flavor.

Agree?

Disagree?

I blanch them and also cook the rice. I have done it both ways and prefer to blanch them. It's a taste thing and a texture thing for me.

Steph, since you pre-cook the rice, how long do you then bake the bell peppers once they've been stuffed?

I steam my peppers slightly before cutting and baking. I stop while they are still bright green.

Bake for 25-30 min. to make sure everything is hot.

I say just forget the baking and fry them up with the hamburger.

I bake it for about 20-30 minutes at 350.

I have a microwave recipe for Stuffed Peppers. I cook the just the peppers first in the microwave for 2 minutes. My recipe calls for cooked rice.

I can't eat them (although I have stuffed banana peppers on the list for this weekend) but my grandmother precooks the filling and blanches. Her peppers are a family legend.
