Wow – no kidding? I hadn’t any idea. Isn’t that funny – we have always let them go to red. But it just dawned on me that my grandmother never, and I mean never, served any green bell peppers either. So perhaps this is one of those “Crocetti family food things.” I have other plants with lots of green Frigitelli still on them. I will have to try them. I will say that when left on the vine, they attain a most glorious, highly saturated red. Thanks for stopping by and for the garden wisdom.

Hi Linda,
Well you are here today, and that is all that counts. I am enjoying these garden shots, and I am glad you are too!

So interesting that the frigitelli are left on the vine to turn red. They are only picked – and eaten – green in Italy.
