Garmir Bgh-beghi Aghtsan - Red Pepper Salad

Cooks in Armenian homes store away the hamime pepper mixture in the fall when red peppers come into season and enjoy hamime throughout the year. Red Pepper Paste is quite similar to hamime pepper mixture, but is dried before storage. It is likely that the original version of hamime used this dried paste rather than the fresh pepper mixture used here. If you want to try a recipe using the flavor of the dried paste, Muhamara dip is a close relative of hamime.
