About Pickled capsicum

Pickled capsicum, often referred to as pickled bell peppers, is a tangy, flavorful condiment made by soaking fresh capsicum in a vinegar-based brine, typically spiced with herbs, salt, sugar, and sometimes garlic. This preparation is popular in Mediterranean, Eastern European, and Mexican cuisines, where it's used to enhance dishes with its bright, zesty punch. Capsicum is naturally rich in vitamin C, antioxidants, and fiber, making it a nutritious addition to meals. The pickling process preserves these nutrients while adding gut-friendly probiotics if fermented naturally. However, commercially produced varieties may include added sugars and sodium, which should be consumed in moderation. Pickled capsicum is a versatile ingredient, enjoyed in sandwiches, salads, or as part of charcuterie boards, offering both health benefits and a delicious burst of flavor to your plate.
