thanks pb, i love those peppers, great raw as a healthy snack, im using them nezt time for sure. tonight i made a salami salad sandwich. i rolled up several slices of some good salami and sliced them real thin, sliced up some marinated bocconcini and some peperoncini and mixed it all together in a bowl and dressed it simply with some good extra virgin and red wine vinegar. served it on a nice soft kaiser roll. it hit the spot in a big way.
