Bite On It!

I used to use a lot of capsicums or bell peppers in my cooking before I was married as they can be eaten fresh or cooked. However, the price of capsicums had increased so much over the years (especially the red ones) so I don’t buy them as often now.

Capsicum is quite a flexible ingredient, just like tomatoes. It adds some flavors to cooking and it has lots of nutrients and fibers which is good for health.
