Bell Pepper
You can’t wear my scientific name as a cap annually ! You can’t hear me when I ring my bell, though I am shaped like one!
colored green, yellow, red or orange commonly; brown, white, lavender or deep purple rarely;
depending on the time of harvesting and ripening !
green pepper is harvested unripe, more bitter and cheaper; red pepper is sweeter than green;
has 11 times more beta carotene,
10 times more vitamin A,
twice as much vitamin C than green bell pepper !!
I am a favorite vegetable of chefs to display their culinary skills, when stuffed and baked / steamed / sauteed or grilled in veggie burgers/ kebabs ***
