Description

Rich, juicy, and naturally sweet, red capsicum is the fully ripened crown jewel of the bell pepper family. Because it stays on the vine longest to mature, it develops a deep crimson color and a delightful sweetness, making it a star ingredient in both fresh salads and warm, heart-warming meals.
