150g bag of fresh Pimientos de Padron
Picked when you order, so always very fresh.
This is the Spanish delicacy often served in Tapas bars. These are picked immature and green, and usually fried in olive oil and sea salt. Tradition says that one in 30 is a hot one (Please note that we can not guarantee that each pack will contain a hot chilli, nor can we guarantee that there will not be hot chillies in the pack. We do pick what we hope will be mild chillies). Normally available Mid July to the end of November.
Recipe: As a starter, half-a-dozen fruits per person. Heat a heavy frying pan with a little oil, throw the peppers in (with stalks on) and keep them moving to blister and soften on all sides. Sprinkle with sea salt, and serve immediately - just pick them up by the stalk and enjoy!
The number of fruits per 150g will vary with the season between about 10 and 25.
Heat: MILD, mostly!
Flavour: Pea and Sweetcorn, lovely! (when roasted)
Keep up the fabulous work guys! x.
