Long Sweet Peppers Hothouse Grown 2 lbs

Long Sweet Peppers are elongated, mild-flavored peppers grown in controlled hothouse environments, packaged in 2 lb bags. These Italian-style peppers have smooth, glossy skin and crisp, aqueous flesh with a sweet taste and little to no heat (0-100 SHU). They can be enjoyed raw or cooked, developing a complex, smoky-sweet flavor when roasted, grilled, or fried.

These versatile peppers are excellent sources of vitamin C (an antioxidant that builds collagen and boosts immunity), vitamin A, folate, potassium, and vitamin K. They range from 20 to 25 centimeters in length with a conical shape that tapers to a point. The country of origin varies to maintain availability and may be sourced from Canada or Mexico.

Perfect for both raw and cooked applications, these peppers can be sliced fresh into salads and sandwiches, blended into sauces and salsas, stuffed and roasted, fried whole as a side dish, or added to pasta, soups, and pizza. They pair beautifully with cheeses like mozzarella and parmesan, garlic, tomatoes, and grilled meats.
