Shishito Pepper (Sweet), Heirloom, Patio Perfect, NEW for 2020!
60 days. A favorite old Japanese variety which produces 2 to 3” long, slightly wrinkled fruits perfect for roasting pan-frying or grilling. Typically harvested and used green, but it will turn orange to red with sweeter flavor. Very prolific!
Thin walls blister and char easily when roasted or grilled, taking on rich flavor that is delicious with coarse salt and lemon juice. Pepper lore has it that the occasional fruit will display heat. Typically harvested and used green, but eventually turns orange and red with sweeter flavor. Prolific!

A favorite pepper! Even kids like it. Reliable and just keeps blooming well into fall. Briefly char the skin in a dry (no oil) cast iron pan then drizzle with olive oil during the last minute of cooking. Sprinkle with a bit of salt while they cool.
