Capsicum ingredient photo by Pookie Snack Bar

Crunch, colour and a touch of sweet.

Capsicum, also called bell pepper, brings crunch and a gentle sweetness. Green ones are grassy, while red ones are the sweetest, because they are fully ripe.

Key benefits

  • Vitamin C: red capsicum is especially rich in it.
  • Colour: green, red and yellow all taste a little different.
  • Crunch: it stays pleasantly crisp-tender when baked.

Fun fact

A red capsicum is just a green one that was left on the plant to ripen.
