Bell Pepper
5 recipes 1 guide
Cut into dice or strips, bell pepper brings mild sweetness, vegetal flavor, color, and moisture to chilis, jambalaya, and other simmered dishes. Sautéing it with onions softens its crisp flesh and rounds its flavor; longer cooking makes it tender and less distinct. The common mistake is adding it too late, leaving it crunchy while the other vegetables have melted.
