Bell peppers, on the other hand, have a sweet and mild flavor, with no spiciness. The sweetness comes from the natural sugars in the pepper, which are more prominent in ripe peppers. Bell peppers come in a variety of colors, including green, red, yellow, and orange, and each color has a slightly different flavor profile. Green bell peppers are the least sweet and have a slightly bitter taste, while red, yellow, and orange bell peppers are sweeter and have a more fruity flavor. Bell peppers are commonly used in Mediterranean, Mexican, and Middle Eastern cuisine, and are a key ingredient in dishes such as fajitas, ratatouille, and stuffed peppers.
