- Yellow Pepper aka "Yellow Bell Pepper", "Yellow Sweet Pepper", "Huang-Jiao", "黃椒", "黃椒"
- Yellow pepper is a plump, bell-shaped vegetable with a mildly sweet and fruity flavor. Inside contains white piths and a cluster of tiny white seeds. The seeds are edible but are generally discarded. All sweet pepper starts green at the immature stage and turns color as they mature. Yellow pepper is the mature form of sweet pepper. Yellow pepper holds up well for heat and is often grilled, roasted, and juiced. Yellow pepper is available year-round.
Handling Tip
Selection
- Yellow pepper is firm, plump, and bright yellow.
- Yellow pepper shows no signs of crack, decay, or shriveled skin.
Storage
- Yellow pepper should be stored at 45°F - 55°F (7°C - 13°C) with a relative humidity of ninety to ninety-five percent and no mist.
- The typical shelf life is two to three weeks. Shelf life can be extended by another week by packaging in moisture-retentive films under optimal storage temperature. Storage temperatures above 55°F (13°C) will accelerate ripening and soft rot.
- Yellow pepper is sensitive to ethylene, a naturally occurring gas that regulates ripening. Yellow pepper should not be stored with high ethylene-producing products to extend shelf life and avoid softening. Yellow pepper produces a very low level of ethylene.
- Yellow pepper is moderately sensitive to chilling injury at storage below 45°F (7°c). Symptoms include surface pitting, water-soaked areas, decay, and discoloration of the seed cavity.
