Tasting Notes from the Curator

The Green Bell Pepper Extra offers a uniquely fresh, grassy aroma that embodies the essence of its French origin. The volatile compounds, particularly methoxypyrazines and terpenes, contribute to its complex aromatic profile. With a mildly sweet yet slightly bitter flavor, these green bell peppers stand out among their peers. Harvested before they fully ripen, they maintain a bright, clean finish that’s less pronounced in sweeter, riper varieties. The slight bitterness adds a balancing note to richer dishes. Texturally, the Green Bell Pepper Extra is firm with a smooth, glossy skin, and a juicy, crisp interior that retains moisture well, making it highly valued in both raw and cooked applications. The high water content adds a refreshing quality, ideal for hot days or cooling salads. These characteristics make the Green Bell Pepper Extra not just any bell pepper but a standout ingredient that elevates culinary experiences with its premium quality and vivid sensory appeal.
