Recipe idea

Edible parts

Fruits
Recipe idea for your 'Minisweet' F1 pepper harvest. Fill the small peppers with a mixture of cooked rice, fresh cheese, and herbs. Cut them in half lengthwise, remove the seeds, and keep the shells. Mix the rice with some sautéed onion and a spoonful of tomato sauce to soften it. Fill the peppers without packing them, then place them in a lightly oiled dish. Bake at 190°C (374°F) until the flesh is tender and the filling is hot. Add grated cheese toward the end for a slightly golden topping. The color stage and flesh thickness will change the cooking result. Thin flesh cooks quickly, while a fleshy pepper holds its shape better. Cut the pieces evenly to avoid having undercooked bites next to overcooked parts.
