    Can substitute green Scotch bonnet peppers or green habanero peppers for kpakpo shito chiles, and green poblano peppers for Anaheim peppers.

    Unable to find green kpakpo shito, green Scotch bonnet, or green habanero peppers, I used red pepper flakes, as suggested in the note for regular shito. So I suppose this wasn't really green shito, but it was a delicious condiment with bright, herbaceous flavor and medium heat. Half the recipe still made a lot. Fairly rich, next time I would try reducing the oil by 1/3.
