About Sweet yellow bell pepper
A sweet yellow bell pepper is the ripe yellow form of a bell-shaped, non-hot pepper. It has smooth, glossy skin, thick crisp flesh when raw, and a hollow interior with seeds and pale ribs. The precise shade can range from pale yellow to golden.
It is eaten raw or cooked, including in salads, roasted dishes, and sautés. Its flavour is sweet and vegetal, with a mild pepper character. Fresh whole peppers are distinct from roasted, chopped, or preserved products, which may have altered texture or added ingredients.
