These are one of the yellow long peppers – there are several types and from a photo alone it’s impossible to tell which one you have. There are long Italian frying peppers, banana peppers, and several others. The good news is that once they turn yellow they are ripe so there is no confusion there – peppers that turn red when ripe go from green to red without a stop at yellow, but those that are ripe when yellow go directly from green to yellow.
Most yellow peppers are mild, so you shouldn’t have to worry that they will be spicy. But since “heat” is different from person to person, you might cut into a yellow pepper and touch your pinky finger to that cut and then put it to your lips to taste in order to tell if you think it’s spicy or not. Enjoy!
