3. Remove the skins, stems and kernels from the steamed peppers, grind them in a meat grinder, pass them through a potato press or chop them finely, definitely do not blend the peppers in a blender to a mash!
4. Put all the prepared ingredients in a pot, salt generously, pour in the oil and cook slowly for about 3 hours, keeping the mixture just below boiling point and stirring constantly until a thick mass is formed

The hot Ajvar can also be jarred; pour the mixture into clean jars while still hot, close the jars tightly and sterilize for 20 minutes at 85 °C.
