Last year I made ajvar for the first time in my own kitchen and completely alone. Of course, that meant that I also had to clean the ajvar mess alone and that’s the experience I don’t want to do again. The boiling ajvar was squirting everywhere, messing up half of the kitchen, including the ceiling. I really wasn’t in the mood to clean everything again, not after all the pickling and cleaning I did this year, so I’ve decided to make the ajvar in the oven this year.<\/p>\n

I made the small amount of the baked ajvar last year as the testing batch and it turned out my hubby preferred the baked ajvar over the cooked one. The baked ajvar is a bit darker and thicker than the cooked one, but the general taste is the same.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

The ingredients for the oven-baked ajvar were completely the same as the “normal” ajvar:<\/p>\n
