Long Capsicum (কেপচিকাম)
Long capsicum, also known as long sweet pepper or elongated bell pepper, is a type of Capsicum annuum characterized by its slender, elongated shape and vibrant colors, which can range from green and yellow to red and orange. Unlike their smaller, hotter relatives, these peppers are sweet and mild, making them a versatile addition to a variety of dishes. They are commonly used in salads, stir-fries, and grilled dishes, and can also be stuffed or roasted to bring out their natural sweetness. Nutritionally, long capsicums are rich in vitamins A and C, antioxidants, and dietary fiber, contributing to overall health and wellness. Their crisp texture and sweet flavor make them a favorite among those looking to add a fresh, colorful touch to their meals. Thriving in warm climates, long capsicums are relatively easy to grow and are a popular choice in both home gardens and commercial agriculture.
