Japanese Shishito Pepper ししとう

Mild, wrinkled, and vibrant green, Japanese Shishito Peppers bring a smoky-sweet complexity to any dish. Around one in ten packs a mild heat, offering a playful bite without overpowering spice.

Perfect for blistering in a hot pan with sea salt or tossing on the grill, these peppers are a staple in izakaya-style cooking. Their thin skin crisps quickly, making them ideal for quick snacks, appetisers, or side dishes.

Freshly imported and packed with umami, they deliver texture and flavour that shine with minimal prep—no peeling, seeding, or marinating needed.
