About Padron
Padron peppers, originally from the Galicia region of Spain, are small, vibrant green peppers commonly used in Spanish cuisine. Traditionally served as tapas, they are lightly blistered in olive oil and sprinkled with sea salt, offering a smoky and mildly sweet taste. While most Padron peppers are mild, approximately one in ten can surprise with a spicy kick. Nutritionally, they are low in calories and rich in vitamins C and E, which contribute to immune health and skin vitality. They also provide dietary fiber and antioxidants that support digestion and combat oxidative stress in the body. Padron peppers are typically prepared with minimal added fat, making them a relatively healthy option. However, frying them in excessive oil and liberal salt use can increase calorie and sodium content, so they are healthiest when prepared using controlled amounts of cooking oils and seasonings.
