Arrange bell peppers, cut sides down, in a shallow baking pan. Broil 4 to 5 inches from heat until blackened and beginning to soften, about 15 minutes. Cover pan tightly with foil and let stand, covered, until cool enough to handle, 10 to 15 minutes. Peel peppers and cut lengthwise into 1/2-inch- wide strips. Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 400F. Lightly oil gratin dish. Stir together parsley, thyme, rosemary, zest, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Toss bread cubes with cheese and oil (5 tablespoons) in another bowl. Arrange half of tomatoes in gratin dish, overlapping slices and alternating colors, then spread half of pepper strips on top. Sprinkle with half of herb mixture and 2 cups bread mixture. Repeat layering with remaining ingredients, ending with bread mixture. Bake gratin until vegetables are bubbling and topping is golden brown, 35 to 45 minutes, covering dish with foil if bread browns too quickly. Cool gratin on a rack to warm or room temperature. Special equipment: a 13- by 9-inch (3- to 31/2-quart) gratin or nonreactive shallow baking dish (see cooks' notes below). Cooks' Notes: • Stainless steel, glass, and enameled cast iron are nonreactive; avoid pure aluminum and uncoated iron, which can impart an unpleasant taste and color to recipes with acidic ingredients. • Gratin can be baked 6 hours ahead and kept, uncovered, at room temperature. Makes 10 to 12 servings. Gourmet, July 2006, Ruth Cousineau Formatted by Chupa Babi for MC: 070606 Chupa Note: I used 2 each of red, yellow and green peppers for some contrast along with yellow red and green tomatoes. Upped the pepper count to 1 tablespoon and used red pepper flakes instead. Also grated in a little Kassari cheese on top of the gratinee when I was done laying it out.

In Hawaii there is a variety known as "Poha" where it is most commonly used to make a most delicious jelly. It is a tender perennial and in more northern climes is used as an annual in the same manner as tomatoes and peppers. Like the tomatillo the fruit forms inside a papery husk which must be removed before using. The fully ripe fruit can be eaten raw but is best in pies or preserves. I have used fully ripe tomatillos (the green variety but not the purple) instead of ground cherries to make a lovely jam or jelly but because tomatillos are larger they need to be quartered before cooking.
