Tips:

  • When buying, look for firm, crisp bell peppers that feel heavy for their size and are clear of spots and blemishes.

  • Green peppers are unripe red peppers, so they will be more bitter and acidic. Yellow and orange peppers are separate varieties.

  • Pepper skin can be bitter and tough. For the sweetest flavour, boil or broil the pepper and peel off the skin before using.

  • To clean the pepper, run a sharp knife around its green stem and pull away the core. Half the pepper and remove any remaining seeds and white skin.
