Blistered Shishito Peppers

These salty flash-fried shishito peppers are one of my absolute favorite snacks. It's a great dish for sharing with a few friends at a party or over dinner. It only takes a couple minutes to prepare them, so they're especially great if you just want to throw something together quickly to serve while you finish up the rest of the meal.

Video: How to Cook Shishito Peppers

I discovered these blistered shishito peppers with salt on a recent trip and had to come right home and reproduce them as they were just THAT good. I'm now totally addicted to this awesome  salty snack (I think I've eaten this twice already in the past week!), and I think you will be too.

Watch my video below for a quick 5-minute tutorial teaching you the easiest way to cook shishito peppers (you'll also learn where EXACTLY it was that I learned about these peppers).

I'm also excited to share that I've relaunched my YouTube channel and plan on releasing more videos regularly. I've already got 5 more in the queue covering topics from cocktails to tapas to dessert! I may even add some random vlogs...Oh yes!

So be sure to subscribe via YouTube so you can get updates whenever I post new videos!

(In the beginning of the video there are a few quick static-y blips--sorry about that; I think my sweater was rubbing against the mic.)

Like the video? Be sure to share it with your friends! Thanks for watching!

P.S. I think I figured out that the reason they were serving shishito peppers in this place is because they're a kind of cheaper version of padron peppers, but cooked in the same technique. What we ate were definitely shishito peppers, though!

P.P.S. If the above sentence doesn't make sense to you, go back and WATCH THE VIDEO!
