Description

We sell a wide range of peppers, starting from bell peppers, red peppers, to chili peppers.

Bell peppers (Capsicum annuum) are the fruits of certain plants from the nightshade family.

They are related to chili peppers, tomatoes, and breadfruit, all of which are native to Central and South America.

Also called sweet peppers or capsicums, bell peppers are eaten as vegetables, either raw or cooked.

Like their close relatives, the chili peppers, bell peppers are sometimes dried and powdered. In that case they are referred to as paprika.

They are low in calories and exceptionally rich in vitamin C and other antioxidants, making them an excellent addition to a healthy diet.

Bell peppers come in various colors, such as green (unripe), red, yellow, and orange.

Green, unripe fruits have a slightly bitter flavor and are not as sweet as those that are fully ripe.

Bell peppers are mainly made up of water and carbs. Most of the carbs are sugars, such as glucose and fructose. Bell peppers are also a decent source of fiber.

Bell peppers are very high in vitamin C, and one bell pepper may provide up to 169% of the RDA. Other vitamins and minerals found in bell peppers include vitamin K1, vitamin E, vitamin A, folate, and potassium.
