Preparing Peppers for Hawaiian Pork

Video Transcript

"On behalf of Expert Village, I'm Laura Banford and I'm going to show you how to make Hawaiian Pork with Braised Cabbage and Pineapple-Tomato Skewers. Now that we've prepped our lemongrass, ginger, onions and garlic and got them into our vegetable bowl we're going to prep our pepper. I chose a red pepper because it going to have, it has some nice sweetness, but it also has great color and this dish needs a lot of extra color. So, this is how I would do it. We're going to, we're going to make kind of like matchsticks of the pepper. We're going to cut off the top and the bottom. And you want to clean the inside. Let's take this. This is a nice-looking knife for this purpose. Slice it down, and I'm going to open up the pepper. And in order to clean the ribs out of it it's good to break it into segments, so I'll do that. And lets, this knife is nice and sharp also. And very easily we can slice out our, our ribs. That looks a little thick so I'm going to slice that down. And this one has some rib too and some seeds. And let's make it into matchsticks. Just like that. Make them nice and thin. I think that one's a little too thick, slice it again. One more section. It is such heaven to work with a sharp knife. I sharpen my knives before I use them every single day. Okay, there we go. And when we come back we're going to start to saute our pork."
