About Esplette bell pepper

Espelette bell peppers, also known as Piment d'Espelette, hail from the Basque region of France, where they are prized for their mild heat and fruity notes. Rich in antioxidants like carotenoids and vitamin C, these peppers support immune health while also providing fiber for digestive wellness. While typically dried and ground into a flavorful spice, the fresh variety contains low calories and negligible fat, making it an excellent addition to a balanced diet. Espelette peppers pair beautifully with meats, vegetables, and traditional Basque dishes, offering depth without overwhelming heat. They also contain capsaicin, known for its anti-inflammatory properties. However, those who are sensitive to nightshade vegetables may want to consume them in moderation. Their unique flavor and health benefits make Espelette bell peppers a versatile ingredient for both nutrition and culinary exploration.
