Bell Pepper, Green

Green bell peppers have a slightly bitter, grassy flavor and a crisp, crunchy texture. They are less sweet than their red, yellow, or orange counterparts, offering a fresh, vegetal taste that adds a vibrant contrast in dishes. When cooked, green bell peppers soften and lose some of their bitterness, becoming milder and more savory. They are often used in stir-fries, salads, fajitas, and stuffed peppers, and they pair well with onions, tomatoes, garlic, and various herbs and spices.
