For any home canned vegetables are best to take fleshy and ripe peppers. In salads perfect match for the taste of peppers of different ripening. And how beautiful palette! Green, yellow, red! Traffic light colors.
Lecho cooked with tomato, peppers and the beauty of it is not assessed. Because the best here (for my taste) red pepper, fully ripe but not overripe.
Wash peppers, dried, cleaned and cut into strips. Splitting in lecho - very important component. I do not like very small slices of pepper. It reminds me of the sauce Lecho, but certainly not worthy of the proud title of absolutely amazing canned Lecho. But someone like that.
