Additions

I've found in cooking that pimentos can be difficult to incorporate into a dish. The main places I find myself using them are in Mediterranean dishes, salads and dips. Many good hearty chip dips are improved by the addition of pimento peppers.

If you wish to serve something more uncommon, try finding whole peppers and stuffing them with various fillings (A personal favorite of mine is cream cheese, smoked salmon, diced green olives and jalapenos). This recipe tastes the best in the more mild and sweeter varieties of pepper.

Cooks.com listen 48 recipes, many of which look pretty good, that utilize the pimento pepper. See the link, below.

Happy cooking :)
