About Pepperoncini
Pepperoncini, also known as Tuscan peppers or Golden Greek peppers, are small, mild chili peppers originating from Italy and Greece. They are typically pale yellow-green and have a tangy, slightly sweet flavor with a moderate crunch. Often pickled, they are a popular addition to Mediterranean dishes, salads, antipasto platters, and sandwiches. Pepperoncini are low in calories, fat-free, and a good source of vitamins A and C, which support immune health and vision, as well as potassium for heart function. Their capsaicin content, though mild, may contribute to metabolism boosting and antioxidant properties. However, pickled varieties can be high in sodium, so consumption should be balanced if monitoring salt intake. Enjoyed fresh or preserved, pepperoncini bring both flavor and a touch of zesty brightness to a variety of dishes.
