Santaka spicy peppers are a Japanese heirloom variety and the hot flavor is perfect in oriental preparations from stir-fries to soups. Dozens of peppers grow up-right on a stocky plant and turn from green to bright red. Santaka peppers make great chili flakes and we use whole peppers to flavor oil for cooking and marinades. 40,000-75,000 Scoville Units.Β
