Edible parts

Fruits

Recipe idea for your 'Takara' F1 green pepper harvest. Make a sautéed pepper dish to accompany a late-summer meal. Remove the stems and seeds, then cut the flesh into strips of similar thickness. Sauté an onion in a large pan with a drizzle of oil. Add the peppers in a fairly thin layer so they can brown instead of boiling in their own juices. Stir occasionally, then lower the heat to finish cooking to your desired texture. Add a touch of garlic near the end of cooking and a splash of cider vinegar before serving. Cooked chickpeas turn this side dish into a vegetarian main. The color stage and the thickness of the flesh change the result in the kitchen. Thin flesh cooks quickly, while a fleshy pepper holds its shape better. Cut the pieces evenly to avoid having pieces that are still firm next to ones that are overcooked.
