I don't know what I'm going to do with these yet. I might just snack on them raw. I just thought these were so pretty. This picture doesn't do them justice. Seeing them all lined up on a special display at the grocery store was striking. I should have snapped a pic of that!

Oh wow! They ARE so pretty!
Are they some kind of bell pepper? I love bell peppers - get them nice and cold, and slice up to eat just like that.

They are beautiful! I will often dip Aloha peppers in hummus. Because I feel like they do look too appetizing to chop for a salad or stir fry!

@chickenbutt I just found a great site for "Specialty Produce" that gives details about these beauties:
https://specialtyproduce.com/produce/Striped_Holland_Bell_Peppers_13507.php
Apparently, the bell peppers were discovered in a garden in the Netherlands. They are also known as Enjoya peppers. They are a hybrid of red and yellow bell peppers. Who knew!

@Mellyg Oooo I think raw with hummus is the way to go. Great idea, thx!

I've never even heard of these but the look great. Does it taste like a red pepper?

Looks good, should enjoy sliced and cold. Dip anyone?

Whenever I've had Aloha peppers, I've found them to be sweeter and a tad milder than red peppers (but the taste is similar, IMO).
@LdyBugz , I just remembered, I made vegetarian stuffed peppers with them before. And the presentation was more appealing than green bell peppers. I think I preferred them raw, but they were very inexpensive at a farmers market and overbought!

How pretty! These days, mini lunchbox peppers are my go to. I cut them in half, remove any seeds, spread with a little cream cheese and sprinkle with everything bagel seasoning. I would go the same with these or just enjoy them plain.

@GenXmuse I nibbled on some plain slices last night. The pepper is nice, and very much like a red pepper to me. Maybe just a teensy bit less sweet. A good snack though!
