Padrón Pepper: The Russian Roulette of Spice
The Padrón Pepper (Capsicum annuum) is a Spanish delicacy from Galicia, famous for the saying: "Pimientos de Padrón, unos pican e outros non" (Some are hot, some are not). Most are mild, but every now and then, one is unexpectedly spicy.
Intensity and Classification
Padrón is predominantly "Mild", with most fruits near 0 SHU. However, spicy ones can reach up to 2,500 Scoville Units (SHU). This makes them perfect for beginners who enjoy a bit of a surprise.
Shape, Aroma, and Cooking
Fruits are small (5 cm) and harvested while yellowish-green. They have a mild, sweet, and vegetal flavor. The traditional way to eat them is fried in olive oil until the skin blisters, served with sea salt as a classic tapa.
Fun and Versatility
It is the perfect pepper for sharing and snacking, always sparking a smile when someone finds the "hot one." Easy to grow and very productive.
