• Recipe: Bell peppers are the stars in this version of braised chicken

  10-04-2021 20:11 via ocregister.com
  
  My mother was a green bell pepper enthusiast. I assume her generous use of the shamrock-green peppers was fueled by their high vitamin C content. When I unwrapped the green slices in my lunchbox, my friends would call Mom a “health nut,” an apt title derived from her never-ending study and discussion of nutrition.
  Bell peppers in friskier colors became commonplace in the decades that followed, but in my childhood only the green beauties were used.

  Being “tough on China” is politically popular in Washington these days, and Biden has come out of the gate swinging against Beijing. But “being tough” isn’t a policy and reflexively applying it to China doesn’t serve U.S. interests. A logical and realistic approach to Beijing, however, can.
