NOELIA'S ORIGINAL SPANISH RECIPE FOR PADRON PEPPERS



Noelia's Original Spanish Recipe for Padron Peppers image

Padron is a small area of Spain situated very close to the Northern border with Portugal, on the Atlantic coast side and it's just a short distance south of the famed Santiago de Compostela. So these are a sweet pepper (pimientos de Padrón in Spanish) that originated from South America that you lightly fry and then eat... Then what's the twist? Well the twist is that for some unknown reason roughly one pepper in 20 or 30 will have a slight kick to it, not a whopping belt of a kick like a Jalapeño or Habanero pepper, but just a pleasant surprise to tickle your taste buds. No, they don't throw one of a different variety of pepper into the bag as a joke, apparently the " odd one with a kick" is a natural quirk of this pepper variety. Warning, these are addictive! .. and a brilliant tapas recipe! There is one other similar recipe here, but it uses garlic and balsamic vinegar and a LOT more olive oil, this is the original Spanish recipe from the family that farm Padron Peppers in Herbon - Padron, Spain.

Time 4m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

200 g padron bell peppers (washed)
30 ml olive oil (2 Tablespoons)
sea salt

Steps:

  • Heat 30 ml olive oil in a pan.
  • Fry the peppers gently in the olive oil, turning occasionally.
  • As the skin starts to blister (3-4 minutes) take out of the pan and put into bowls, sprinkle with a little sea salt and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh, young padrón peppers. Look for peppers that are small and bright green, with no blemishes.
  • If you can't find padrón peppers, you can substitute another type of small, mild pepper, such as shishito peppers or banana peppers.
  • Be careful not to overcook the peppers, as they will become bitter. Cook them just until they are blistered and slightly charred.
  • If you like, you can add other ingredients to the pickling liquid, such as garlic, shallots, or herbs. Experiment to find a flavor combination that you enjoy.
  • Pickled padrón peppers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Serve them as a snack, appetizer, or side dish.

Conclusion:

Pickled padrón peppers are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or appetizer. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they also make a great gift. With a little planning, you can enjoy pickled padrón peppers all year long.
