Tölteni való paprika, usually shortened to TV paprika (“TAY-VAY PA-PRE-KA”) means “peppers for stuffing.” They are the pale green, longish and mild peppers ubiquitous at markets and shops in Hungary. Abroad they are often called “banana peppers” or even “Hungarian peppers,” while in Hungary the name often causes foreigners and recent-arrivals to wrongly assume they are for munching in front of the television. Another Hungarian name for them is “zöldpaprika” which literally means “green peppers.”
