How to Cut a Bell Pepper Efficiently<\/h2>\r\nThere's nothing wrong with whatever way you usually slice and deseed a pepper, but this method is likely more efficient.\r\n

Directions<\/h3>\r\n

Step 1: Slice off the green stem<\/h4>\r\nSlice off the stem and place the pepper face-down on a cutting board. The bottom of the bell pepper should be facing up.\r\n

Step 2: Cut the bell pepper into fours<\/h4>\r\n\"Tohcom23\r\n\r\nUse a sharp knife to make four vertical slices where the natural indentations occur.\r\n

Step 3: Remove the pepper from the stem<\/h4>\r\n\"Tohcom23\r\n\r\nUse your hands to open up the pepper, almost like a flower. After separating the four wedges, you'll be left with the stem with all of the seeds attached for easy removal.\r\n
