If you select dried peppers, you\u2019ll want to remember\nthat dried hot peppers are at least 10 times more potent than fresh.\u201d Nancy\nalso mentions, \u201cBell peppers: Red are sweetest, yellow the mildest, and green\nthe strongest flavor (for a bell pepper). Bell peppers are very versatile, as\nthey work well raw or cooked. Create a bell pepper rainbow with chopped green,\nred, yellow, orange, or purple peppers. Use them as in ingredient or garnish\nfor tossed, pasta, rice, macaroni, and quinoa cold salads, or put in soups,\nchili, stews, sandwich fillings, and stir-fry dishes. Instead of a three-bean\nsalad, try a three-pepper salad or use a fresh, seeded bell pepper as an edible\nbowl for your favorite salads (cold) or your favorite fillings (hot).\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The complete column can be found here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vrg.org\/journal\/vj2016issue3\/2016_issue3_cooking_tips.php\">Quick and Easy Fresh Pepper Dishes<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To subscribe to Vegetarian Journal, visit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vrg.org\/member\/2013sv.php\">http:\/\/www.vrg.org\/member\/2013sv.php<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chef Nancy Berkoff shares ideas on ways to prepare vegan dishes using fresh and dried peppers in a previous Vegan Cooking Tips column in Vegetarian Journal.
