About Orange bell pepper

An orange bell pepper is the orange-coloured form of a sweet bell pepper, sold fresh as a whole fruit or in cut pieces. It is a distinct colour form, not a reference to hot peppers; ripeness and cultivar influence its appearance and flavour.

The fruit has glossy skin, crisp flesh, and a hollow interior containing seeds and pale ribs. Its flavour is generally sweet and mild, with a juicy crunch when raw; cooking softens the flesh and may bring out sweeter notes. It is used raw or cooked in vegetable preparations.
