Bell Pepper
Bell Pepper is a crisp, mild pepper used raw or cooked for color, sweetness, and texture. Remove the stem, core, seeds, and pale ribs when a cleaner bite is wanted.
Identity
Mild sweet pepper
Use it for color, crunch, and gentle sweetness.
Bell peppers are thick-walled sweet peppers rather than hot chiles. They can be diced raw, sauteed, roasted, or sliced into strips; remove seeds and ribs when you want a cleaner texture.
