Description
20 Seeds certified organic ISE Sweet Pepper Seeds; 伊勢唐辛子 いせあおとうがらし sourced from Adaptive Seeds of Oregon. germination rate 97%, packaged for 2022. Capsicum annuum. Green to Red. 60 days green, 90 days for red Ise is similar in flavor and texture to the common Shishito pepper, but sweeter and larger fruited. Fruit are 3 ½” long by 1” wide and still small enough to prep in all of the classic Shishito ways, but the larger size makes for a quicker harvest. Ise is more well-suited for charcoal grilling since the wider fruit stay on the grill. Shishito peppers took the fresh market scene by storm a few years ago and quickly became popular with restaurants and home cooks for their delicious simplicity, usually served roasted or grilled with olive oil and salt. Ise’s fresh mild flavor is neither sweet nor hot and really pops once cooked. They’re great as a bite-sized stuffing pepper, think jalapeño popper without the heat. Usually harvested underripe when green, they are also good after they’ve ripened to red. Thin-walled and suitable for drying. Originally from Japan where they are a popular snack food. Ise came from Tatiana’s TOMATObase, originally sourced it from the Seed Savers Exchange Need more seeds? Large packet has 100+ seeds.
