Cubanelle

Cubanelle
Green and red cubanelle peppers

The Cubanelle is a variety of sweet pepper of the species Capsicum annuum. When unripe, it is light yellowish-green in color, but will turn bright red if allowed to ripen. Compared to bell peppers it has thinner flesh, is longer, and has a slightly more wrinkled appearance. It is used extensively in Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico's cuisine.

Cubanelle peppers are used[by whom?] in the U.S. to replace Poblano peppers.[citation needed] Most of the cubanelle pepper imports come from the Dominican Republic (where it's called ají cubanela), which has, of late, been the main exporter of this cultivar[citation needed].
