About Padron pepper
Padron peppers are small, green, mild chili peppers originating from the Padron region of Spain, a staple in Spanish cuisine. These peppers are typically sautéed in olive oil and sprinkled with coarse salt, making them a popular tapas dish. While most Padron peppers are sweet and mild, approximately one in ten packs a surprising burst of heat, adding a playful element to their consumption. Nutritionally, Padron peppers are low in calories and rich in essential vitamins such as vitamin C and vitamin B6, supporting immune health and brain function. They also contain antioxidants and dietary fiber, promoting gut health and combating oxidative stress. However, their traditional preparation with oil and salt can increase fat and sodium content, making moderation key for heart health. Padron peppers offer a flavorful and nutritious addition to meals, ideal for those seeking vibrant, plant-based options.
