➤ When: Peppers are good to eat July through late summer.
➤ What to Look For: Green peppers are sweet peppers that are not ripe. They may be slightly bitter because their full flavor has not yet developed. The skin should be smooth and not shriveled. Avoid peppers with soft spots or cracks, or with tops that are moldy or turning colors.
➤ Why: Peppers are loaded with vitamin C, flavonoids, and fiber, giving them an age-reducing benefit.
➤ How to Use: Green peppers have a bright, fresh, slightly grassy flavor that many people love. They’re not sweet like their more mature red and yellow counterparts, and they mix well with most summer vegetables and herbs. Green peppers can be grilled, roasted, sautéed, used in sandwiches, and diced to top salads, soups, stews, chili, and sauces. Also see CHILES.
