Well here in Quebec we call the red pepper - Capsicum quite regularly or Poivre

de

Cayenne in French, sometimes referred as Cayenne Pepper in English too.

<chuckle> Yes, En la Louisianne, we're quite familiar with cayenne!

But what do you call the red sweet pepper?

In French we simply call it Poivron Rouge, or red bell pepper in English (which

is the

mature green bell pepper - the green pepper is not ripe). So the green bell

pepper is

called Poivron Vert. Whether they are green, red, orange, yellow, purple or very

dark, the

sweet ones are called Poivrons. Capsicum is the hot stuff although some

varieties are

sweeter than others.

I have traveled a lot in Mexico, Central America and in some South American

countries.

There must be hundreds of peppers of different shapes, tastes and " hotness " .

Some kinds

can create a nasty burn just by contact. Others are as tasty and light as

mangoes. It's a

whole world.

Which ones are Legal? With my 1 full week SCD experience I wouldn't even try to

guess.

Bourouba,

I haven't yet encountered any peppers that weren't legal, but I have

encountered a number that people would be very wise to avoid until plenty

of healing has taken place.

For myself, I prefer to keep the Scovilles at the lower end of the scale.

I make chili con queso with mild green chili peppers instead of

jalapenos!

Here in New Zealand which is pretty close to Australia and Kylie Kwong we call them capsicums too- red,yellow,orange all sweet, crunchy and not hot and green which is a little less sweet and sharper in flavour but not hot either.( not ripe?)

Hi Mara,

My partner & I call peppers- capsicum. We're in New Zealand & that is what it's commonly called here. If you call capsicum-peppers they could be confused with peppers of the chilli kind. Oh,I have heard them referred to as "bell peppers" too.

Where do they call pepper capsicum? I know it's the Latin name, but I've never

heard it as the common name.
