  • Bell Peppers

    What are these? Are they the same as Capsicum? In england we just call a capsicum a pepper but I don't know if I can eat these or not.

    Thanks,

    Yep. They are part of that family.

    The large mild form is called bell pepper in the U.S. and Canada

    EDIT: I should add the pepper shown in the article is what a 'bell pepper' looks like here if you wanted to compare.
