You are the only other person I have ever heard of with this allergy, besides myself. Such an inconvenience, too, because chefs put bell peppers in everything just to add color (red, yellow, orange, or green, depending on the hue of the rest of the food - I hate that so much.) Sauce looks good - next fall I'll do up a huge batch with my year end harvest and maybe can or freeze it.allergic to bell peppers
So here's what you do: 1) Stop eating bell peppers cold turkey 2) give your body time to relieve your toxic load 3) Eat bell peppers sparingly I grew up in Northern NM allergic to green chile - a place where they put it in the goddamn waffles. Then I moved to Washington where I didn't get dirty gringo looks every time I ate out. Now when I come back to visit I can eat green chile cheeseburgers from Lotaburger. I've got plenty of recipes with bell peppers in them. This one in particular is dope. I cut them up large and serve them to other people while eating around them myself. So far, so good. HOWEVER Do not for one minute think you are now immune. I made the mistake of stir-frying some bell peppers from the farm box because they looked awesome. My digestive system essentially shut down for four days - white rice was the same color and consistency coming and going (TMI, I know). I lost like nine pounds. THUS there was no way I was going to tempt fate with the sauce. I feel pretty secure in the knowledge that had I made it with peppers, it'd be diet food, and not the good kind.
Damn I feel bad for you two. I am one of the rare kind of people who likes red bell pepper raw. Especially the pointy bell peppers, they're extra sweet here. If I ever needed to diet (I don't as I posses the skinny tall gene) I would just eat those all day. edit: did you really had to name this 'humanodon sauce'?
