In venezuela, sweet pepper is grown in different regions, but even more in the east of the country. These small and delicious fruits have a characteristic flavor that combines spicy and sweet, which makes it stand out in each dish that is used.
The sweet aji belongs to the genus capsicum, they exist in colors red, yellow, orange and green like those that see in the image, to these still they lack a little for their harvest, but without a doubt they are beautiful and healthy.
As I said, it can be grown all over the country, but it is said that in the eastern part of it, there are varieties with better taste and smell, especially in the state: Nueva Esparta (Isla de Margarita), it should be noted that It's where I live . formerly they said that only the aji of this beautiful island were those that preserved the smell and flavor, in the rest of the country only its color form.
It is used as seasoning in the preparation of stews, soups, sauces, vinaigrettes and even salads to which they give a unique flavor in each meal. It is also considered a traditional ingredient and we see it included in different national dishes better known as the stews of the hallaca, the soup or boiled beef and fish, seafood, buns, among others that can not be missing from the table of a Venezuelan.
