About Green peppers

Green peppers are peppers described by their green colour. The name may cover different pepper varieties and does not establish whether these are mild sweet peppers or a hotter type, so neither a species nor a heat level can be selected from the record.

They are used fresh or cooked as a vegetable or seasoning, depending on the type and preparation. Peppers may be firm and crisp when fresh, with flavour ranging from mild to pungent; the exact shape, texture, and taste vary across the class.
