Sautéed Shishito Peppers: My Favorite Tapa Dish

Sea salt sautéed Shishito peppers are my absolute favorite tapa dish. When I vacationed in Spain, I ordered this dish at almost every meal, where it’s known as Padrón peppers.

A Delicious Discovery

My friend Jerry first introduced me to this delectable dish about 10 years ago at a tapas place in downtown East Village. Though I’ve forgotten the restaurant’s name, the memory of those delicious peppers has stayed with me. Now, whenever I visit a tapas restaurant, I always order this simple yet tasty dish.

The Perfect Find

Last weekend, I went to Mitsuwa, a well-known Japanese supermarket in NJ, for some grocery shopping. To my delight, I found Shishito peppers! Usually, I only see these peppers at HMart or Eataly occasionally, so finding them at Mitsuwa was a pleasant surprise. I couldn’t resist picking them up to make this appetizer for my loved ones—my parents.

A Quick and Delicious Appetizer

I made a whole plate of sautéed Shishito peppers, and they were gone in no time. Typically, these peppers are sweet and mild, though you might occasionally get a spicy one. However, that’s never happened to me.
