Pepper - Manganji Togarashi

The Manganji Togarashi is a traditional Japanese pepper, prized for its mild heat and sweet flavor. Originating from Kyoto, it is often referred to as the "King of Peppers" due to its large size and versatility in cooking. Unlike most chili peppers, the Manganji Togarashi has a mild spiciness, making it ideal for a variety of dishes, from grilling to stir-fries. Its thick walls provide a satisfying crunch when eaten raw or lightly cooked. Often used in tempura or pickled, this pepper embodies the balance of flavor and texture that is central to Japanese cuisine.
