The Manganji sweet pepper season has begun and will continue until around November.

Fresh, juicy Kyoto vegetables that evoke the flavors of early summer have already arrived.

Known as the “king of peppers,” Manganji sweet peppers are prized for their thick flesh, natural sweetness, and rich flavor. They pair beautifully with oil, making them an essential accompaniment to Endo’s signature tempura.

We invite you to enjoy this quintessential Kyoto summer vegetable as freshly fried tempura.
