Sweet Banana
Long, pale yellow peppers that are milder and sweeter than bell types. Brilliant for frying, stuffing, or eating raw. The Italian nonnas grow these and char them on the barbecue. Follow their lead.

Charred banana peppers with burrata
Grill whole until the skin blisters and chars. Pile onto a plate, tear open a burrata, drizzle with olive oil and a scatter of basil. The sweet, smoky peppers against the creamy cheese is a summer essential.
