Green Bell Peppers are unripe bell peppers harvested before turning yellow, orange, or red. The green color indicates early harvest, giving them a more vegetal, slightly bitter flavor compared to sweeter ripe counterparts. Despite being less sweet, green bells are incredibly popular and widely used in cooking. They’re the most economical bell pepper since they’re harvested earlier. Green bells hold up well to cooking and add fresh, crisp element to dishes. Essential in classic dishes like stuffed peppers, fajitas, and stir-fries.
