REINSAAT’s Shishito chilli seeds are an excellent choice for your garden. This productive, thin-skinned variety of Japanese origin is characterised by its robust growth, making it ideal for growing outdoors. With a heat level of 0, Shishito chillies are mild and aromatic, making them the perfect accompaniment to a variety of dishes.
You can prepare the chillies in various ways. A popular method is grilling: simply sear the green chillies, with their stalks still attached, briefly over a hot flame and then sprinkle with coarse sea salt. This method brings out the delicate flavour of the chillies to the full and ensures a delicious experience.
Shishito chillies are also excellent in salads, as a side dish or in Asian stir-fries. Their mild heat makes them a versatile ingredient that pairs well with other flavours. For a creative snack option, you can also stuff the chillies – for example, with cream cheese or a spicy minced meat mixture – and bake them in the oven.
Growing shishito chilli seeds is straightforward. Start indoors and sow the seeds in potting compost. Once the frost has passed, you can transplant the plants outdoors, where they’ll thrive. Make sure the spot is sunny and sheltered from the wind to encourage growth and ensure a bountiful harvest.
With REINSAAT’s Shishito chilli seeds, you’re not only bringing an aromatic and flavourful plant into your garden, but also the opportunity to create a wide range of delicious dishes. Add a special touch to your meals and delight friends and family with home-grown chillies.
