Anaheims (aka New Mexico chiles) may be a little big and the skin can be tough. A lot of jalapenos any more are not that hot and the size is about right. I would try those. Cubanelles may be a good substitute but may not have as much flavor. Some Asian markets may have the shishito peppers. You can order the seeds for the shishito from Kitazawa Seed Co. http://www.kitazawaseed.com/seed_083-103.html

Hello Meg, う〜ん… maybe anaheim peppers? To my taste, anaheim’s might even top shishito.

Hello Peko,
This looks delicious. What sort of pepper would you recommend for someone who cannot easily find shishito? Thanks to Miwa for the lovely recipes!
