(Capsicum annuum) Fushimi peppers, also known as ao togarashi or Japanese sweet green pepper, are prized for their sweet flavor and crisp, thin flesh. Their slender pods ripen from pale green to red, measuring 4–6 inches, grown on prolific plants up to 3 feet tall. These peppers can be enjoyed raw or used in quick-cooked dishes like stir-fry, tempura, or pickles. Originally from Kyoto’s Fushimi region, they’re popular with home gardeners for their abundant yields.
