Chopped peppers are small pieces of fresh peppers cut into dices or thin strips, commonly used in a variety of recipes to add flavor, color, and texture. The peppers can be sweet or spicy and are used in stews, sauces, salads, sofritos, and other dishes that require a fresh and vibrant touch.
The pepper is an ingredient native to Central and South America, where it was cultivated and used since pre-Columbian times. Subsequently, its consumption spread throughout the world, especially in Mediterranean, Spanish, and Latin American cuisine.
Regarding their properties, chopped peppers are rich in vitamin C, antioxidants, and fiber, making them a healthy food that also provides a characteristic sweet or slightly spicy flavor depending on the variety. Their low calorie content makes them ideal for balanced diets.
In different Hispanic American countries, chopped peppers may also be called chopped ají, chopped morrón (especially for the sweet pepper), or simply chopped chile when referring to spicy varieties. It is important to be aware of these differences to correctly localize recipes and adapt them according to the available ingredient.
