    The peppers in the bottom staged picture are not cooked. Their contents are...cheese melted.

    Found it. They are cooked, just not over-cooked. Till crisp tender.
    Cut top off peppers. Remove seeds and membranes. Place peppers in large pot of boiling water. If necessary, use a spoon to push peppers down so that they are fully submerged. Boil for two minutes and remove.

    Stuffed Peppers

    It does appear to be a stock photo though. Tineye reports it used in several recipes.
    Here's another:
    Peperoni ripieni di riso - La ricetta di Buonissimo
    Place the rice mixture into peppers and place them in a pan, add the butter in flakes, cover with broth and cook in preheated oven at 200 ° C for 20 minutes.

    Anyway, a chef would at minimum blanch the peppers, and would most likely cook them to some degree. Roasted would be nice too (like charred).

      Boiled... weird. From experience doing them on a BBQ, it takes a lot of heat for a long time to get them crispy so boiling doesn't seem like it would do that.

      OK then! lol. Sorry to be a ....-in-ski. I was just following along and wanted to comment.

        lol.
        I just added a comment saying that it would be good on the grill. :)


        Absolutely love peppers on the grill! Not THE Pepper, just peppers. ;)

          Boiled... weird.

          I once tried parboiling the peppers first. Results:

          ... they split open during stuffing/handling
          ... they split open during baking

          The parboiling was because of previous peppers not being fully cooked. I now just allow
          enough time for the baking.

            You sure? Check down the road...is it windy???????????
            How do you know it was them?

            I looked hither and yon.

            It's not windy.

            I do not know with 100% certainty it was them. Who else would want to touch those
            nasty barrels?

            The slatterns (whoever it may be).

              ... but put an old battered plastic laundry basket out there and they won't take it.

              Jam it into the recycle bin... they won't take it.

              Put an innocent barrel lid out there (on and secured)... and they take it.


              ETA: Forced to cut the basket into pieces before it would go away.

                    Yes... 'cuz otherwise they'd be all shriveled and leaning due to sog.
                    Well,

                    1) That's why you do it separately.
                    2) That's why you don't over cook them.

                    Bet I could do it. Dare you.

                    Since you're being picky/contrary/skeptical. Try it! Live a little. Experiment. Cook some one way, others differently. Attempt. Contrast. Compare. Julia would be proud of you, Bear. (You said you were studying her)

                    Microwave 1
                    Boil 1
                    Blanch 1 (followed by ice-water dunk)
                    Bake 1, but for only 10 minutes, or 5 or whatever.
                    Assemble separately, broil to melt cheese.
