Cutting Peppers for Jambalaya

Hi, this is Karl James owner of Creolesoul Catering located in Round Rock, TX and I'm Taylor Glover and on behalf of Expert Village we are here to show you a chicken and sausage jambalaya. This is the step that we're going to get all of our peppers cut and our chef is going to jump in here and start working. The first thing we're going to cut is our green bell pepper, the green bell pepper. They say they have a stronger flavor than your reds, yellow and oranges. I don't know if you seen any of my other cooking videos but I never use the orange bell pepper for personal reasons. So we'll take the green bell peppers we'll slice it lengthwise and chop those in a small dice and we're using the green and the red basically not only for the flavors but we're also going to get that color. Those different colors the color of the green, red. It's always nice to have a sue chef someone to do the cutting for you. At least that is what my mom tells me. Don't let your mom say that, yup. So as you see she is getting some nice just dices out of it, we're going to sweat these later so they'll shrink even more. Let's move this to the side for now and get some of that red bell pepper in here. We are going to cut the red bell pepper same way that we are doing the green pretty much the same size. The one thing when you are cooking if you make your cuts of your vegetables all around the same time, the same size they'll cook evenly. So with the bell pepper we're getting a mild flavor a little stronger flavor with the green a little milder from the red. Then we're also going to use some Serrano peppers and we're going to use the Serrano's to get our heat, just a little bit of heat. We'll finish cutting these up there but we just want to show you the type of chops that we get with this. These are the Serrano's, we're going to use the Serrano's with the seeds and the membrane in there. Because we like that heat so anyway we'll keep going and finishing this up and we'll see you back at the next step.
