The original recipe calls for shishito peppers. They have a little more bite than bell peppers, but are not as hot as chilis. If you can find them, go ahead and use them.

3/4 lb bell pepper (mix of red green orange or yellow)
2 1/2 cups rice vinegar
water
3 garlic cloves, peeled and lightly smashed
