Pimiento de Padron

Pimiento de padron are a variety of peppers Capsicum annuum. These are small peppers (about 5 cm long), with a color ranging from bright green to yellowish green, and occasionally red. It’s said that solely watering the soil of the plant is likely to produce milder pimentos, whilst watering the whole plant, leaves and stalks included, produces peppers of the spicier variety. Padron peppers are small, with an elongated, conic shape. The taste is mild, but some exemplars can be quite hot. Typically, there is no way of determining whether a given pepper will be hot or mild, short of actually eating it, though some maintain that smelling each cooked Padron for spice prior to eating is a good indicator.
