Hi, David
There are some good photos of Gogozhare at:

Now I know that they are chiles... I thought they were African eggplants
(Solanum aethiopicum)!!

>Does anyone have any idea of what gogozhare are? I have checked several
resources and can't quite figure out what they are.

An Albanian friend has described them as poblano-like, but flatter, quite
mild, and with thick meat. He also mentioned that they are roasted to remove
the skin.  He speaks of them in the most glowing terms and says they are
particularly fabulous when stuffed with cheeses and stuck in olive oil.

He has asked some of his relatives in Albania to send me some seeds.

Any info will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
