Edible parts

Recipe idea for your Hungarian 'Cheese' F1 pepper harvest: Make a pepper sauté to accompany a late-summer meal. Remove the stems and seeds, then cut the flesh into strips of uniform thickness. Sauté an onion in a large skillet with a drizzle of oil. Add the peppers in a fairly thin layer so they can brown rather than boil in their own juices. Stir occasionally, then lower the heat to finish cooking to your desired texture. Add a touch of garlic at the end of cooking and a splash of cider vinegar before serving. Cooked chickpeas can turn this side dish into a vegetarian meal. The stage of color and the thickness of the flesh will change the culinary result. Thin flesh cooks quickly, while a fleshy pepper retains its structure better. Cut the pieces evenly to avoid having firm bites next to overcooked parts.
