BTW have any other shishito lovers out there noticed that it seems like ~5% of the peppers served at restaurants have thermonuclear payloads?
Let me state upfront that I’m no pepper head, jalapenos are spicy enough for me so maybe I’m just a wimp. Still, I really like the flavor of roasted shishitos (especially marinated in miso!) and they’re usually not spicy at all so I just go for it… but there’s always **that one** that sneaks up on me and gets a laugh from whoever’s around 😅
If it’s the one on Sawtelle Blvd. that place is great. I’d always hit up Nijiya Market across the street for snacks to bring home.
