Description
Pepper Red, commonly known as “Red Capsicum” in Bangladesh, is a vibrant, bell-shaped vegetable with a glossy, thick skin. It’s characterized by its sweet, crisp, and juicy flesh, offering a mild, slightly fruity flavor. Scientifically classified as Capsicum annuum, it’s a versatile vegetable that loses its initial pungency and develops sweetness as it ripens to red. In Bangladeshi cuisine, red bell peppers are widely used in stir-fries, salads, curries, and as a colorful garnish, valued for their vibrant hue, appealing crunch, and rich nutritional content.
