Bell peppers: when it's in season and what to cook
Bell peppers are usually at their best from July to October across much of the US. That includes now.
How to pick it
Look for glossy, firm peppers that feel heavy, with green, fresh-looking stems.
How to keep it
Refrigerate whole and dry; they keep about a week.
Months are when each item is usually at its best across much of the US. Seasons start earlier in warm places and later in cool ones, and they shift from year to year, so your local farm stand or market is the best guide.
