What it is

Roasted bell pepper is a bell pepper that has been cooked over an open flame or under a broiler until the skin is charred and blistered. The charred skin is then removed, and the pepper is often peeled and seeded. This process gives the pepper a smoky flavor and a softer texture.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use roasted bell pepper to add a sweet, smoky flavor and a tender texture to foods. It is commonly found in dips, salsas, sauces, marinades, and as a topping for pizzas and sandwiches. Its vibrant color also contributes to the visual appeal of dishes.

Health notes

Bell peppers are a good source of vitamins A and C. Roasting does not significantly alter their nutritional value. Regulatory bodies like the FDA consider roasted bell pepper to be a safe food ingredient. There are no widespread health concerns associated with the consumption of roasted bell peppers at typical intake levels.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. Bell peppers are not one of the nine FDA major allergens, nor do they contain gluten.
