Description

Add a taste of Japan to your garden and your kitchen with our Shishito Pepper seeds. This popular heirloom variety is famous for its thin-walled, wrinkled fruits that pack a savory, mild flavor. While most Shishitos are pleasantly mild, the real fun lies in the "roulette" factor—about one in every ten peppers packs a surprising, medium-heat kick! They are best harvested while green and are the ultimate appetizer pepper; simply blister them in a pan with a little oil and sea salt for a world-class snack.

⭐ What you'll love

• High-yielding plants that produce dozens of peppers all season long.
• Mostly mild, savory flavor with a fun "one-in-ten" spicy surprise!
• Thin skins make them ideal for quick sautéing, blistering, or tempura.
