Bahamian Sweet Pepper
About Bahamian Sweet Pepper
The Bahamian Sweet Pepper, also known as the Bahamian Bell Pepper, is a sweet and mild pepper that is perfect for those who enjoy the flavor of peppers without the heat. These peppers are native to the Bahamas and are widely grown throughout the Caribbean.
Bahamian Sweet Peppers are small to medium-sized and have a blocky shape, similar to a bell pepper. They have thick walls and a crunchy texture, making them perfect for stuffing with other ingredients like rice or cheese. Their skin is smooth and they come in a variety of colors, including red, green, yellow, and orange.
These peppers are known for their sweet and fruity flavor, with a slight tanginess that makes them a popular addition to salads, sandwiches, and stir-fry dishes. They are also a great ingredient for recipes that call for a sweet pepper, as they have a similar taste to bell peppers but with a slightly more complex flavor profile.
The Bahamian Sweet Pepper has a SHU rating up to 100, which means that they have no heat at all. This makes them a great alternative to spicy peppers for those who don't enjoy the heat.
These peppers tend to be around 3-4 inches in length, making them smaller than a traditional bell pepper. They are typically harvested when they are fully mature, which is when they have reached their full size and have developed their bright color.
