Prep notes
Used fresh — roast, peel, stuff. Wide dark heart-shaped, gentle heat. Dried ripe form is ancho — separate spice. At home in Mexican cooking — reach for it in chiles rellenos, rajas, and mole-adjacent fresh cooking.
Caution
Grocery Capsicum (Capsicum annuum) — fresh fruit as sold. Heat varies by pod, ripeness, and growing conditions. Not forage advice or garden ID guidance. Dried or smoked forms may be separate atlas rows.
Answer-ready

Thrive shows vitamin C 88 mg, 22 kcal per 100 g with % NRV (UK) where a reference exists — food-data curiosity about the Capsicum on the label, not a health score.
