FAQs about shishito peppers

Believe it or not, you can use an objective scale to determine the spiciness or "heat" of a pepper. It's called the Scoville Scale; it is based largely on the concentration of a certain enzyme within the pepper. In that context, shishito peppers are on the low end of the spicy scale, measuring between 50 and 200 Scoville heat units. By comparison, jalapeno peppers measure exponentially higher at 2,500 to 8,000 Scoville heat units. (Even that's not the hottest - that honor goes to the cayenne pepper.)
