Pepper-shishito

Prized by restaurants and a favorite among chefs. The Japanese sweet pepper produces handfuls of finger-long fruits typically used when green (though also fine to eat when red). Thin-walled fruits are ideal for tempura and stir fries. Very popular as an appetizer tossed with oil, then char-grilled or pan-seared to a blackened, blistered state and salted. Perfect for containers. Maturity: 60-days to 80-days after planting.
