Further InformationEdit Edit

Japanese pepper meaning 'lion's head' — the wrinkled tip supposedly resembles a lion. Like Padrón, mostly mild with the occasional hot one sneaking in. A staple of izakaya (Japanese pub) fare, typically blistered and served with soy or ponzu. Thin-walled, wrinkled, and prolific.
