Vegetable of the week. Gilo
It's a bright green Brazilian pepper.
Gilo are easy to cook - just remove a bit from each end, chop in half, and put in a pot with some water and a sprinkle of salt.
Oscar's sister gave us these peppers. I don't know where you buy them. Um... they are not my favorite. The flavor is somewhat bitter. But maybe you'd like them??
Always good to try something new! Here's our list. What have you tried lately?
