My usual method for roasting peppers is to sit each pepper on an open flame, letting the skin turn black and ashen in spots. It's time-consuming, especially if I'm roasting more than four peppers at once (I have a four-burner stove), so I blacken them all together under the broiler. (You could also use a grill.)

Steps:
- Heat broiler. Place red peppers on a baking sheet and broil until charred all over, turning peppers as they darken. Time will vary with the intensity of your broiler, so keep an eye on them. Transfer peppers to a bowl, cover with a dish towel, and let cool.
- Meanwhile, spread tomatoes (skin side up), onion chunks and garlic on a baking sheet. Broil until vegetables are just beginning to char in spots, about 3 minutes. Transfer them to a blender with the sage, pepper flakes and salt, and blend until smooth. Taste, and add more salt, if necessary. Leave blender top on to keep sauce warm. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
- Peel red peppers, then make a slit down one side of each and take out seeds, leaving stems attached if possible. (They look better that way for serving.) A paper towel is helpful for peeling and seeding. Do not use water, which dilutes the peppers' flavor.
- If raisins are not plump, cover them with boiling water and let sit for 5 minutes. Drain well. Toss the cheese, olives and raisins together. Stuff mixture into peppers, and place in a baking dish. Bake for 15 minutes, then add the sauce and continue to bake until cheese bubbles, about 20 minutes longer. Serve peppers hot or at room temperature.
