Description: 100 Fushimi Sweet Long Japanese sweet pepper seeds; 伏見甘長唐辛子 ふしみあまなが germination rate 83%, test date Feb 2023 sourced from Tokita Seed America of Gilroy CA 時田種苗 Fushimi peppers (a.k.a. fushimi togarashi) are popular Japanese sweet peppers, perfect for frying. With their elongated, tapered shape – similar to a cayenne – fushimi look like they should carry some spiciness. But, in fact, they deliver little to no heat, making them very family-friendly. They are as delicious fresh as they are fried, so they can make an excellent bell pepper substitute on salads, sandwiches, and more.
