Should I Cook My Bell Peppers Before I Stuff Them?
It is not necessary to cook bell peppers before stuffing them, but it is recommended to blanch them in boiling water for two to three minutes to soften them and make them easier to stuff. This also helps to remove any bitterness from the peppers. However, if you prefer a more crunchy texture, you can skip the blanching step and stuff the bell peppers raw.
