Long Sweet Peppers have a higher sugar content than bell peppers, making them taste especially sweet raw or cooked. Add them raw to a panzanella salad or fresh spring rolls. Or, try roasting low and slow in the oven with olive oil for an extra silky sweet flavor. Enjoy cooked peppers as a pizza topping, sandwich ingredient, or purée peppers into red sauce or hummus.

Our family of red, yellow and orange Long Sweet Peppers is hot house grown for superior flavor, texture and consistency. Peppers mature on the vine before harvesting, allowing full-flavored sweetness to develop.

Choose peppers that are bright in color with no wrinkling of the skin or stem. Store in a plastic bag in the crisper drawer for up to 10 days.
