Sweet and Sour Peppers (Agro-dolce)

Peperoni all'Agrodolce This flavorful dish would be great served with grilled or roasted meats, an asset to any antipasti platter, and would also work well in a panini with sliced meats. Serve at room temperature or just warm for the best flavor. If you are concerned about the anchovies, try the anchovy paste in a tube which has a milder flavor.
