About Padron peppers

Padron Peppers, hailing from the Galicia region of Spain, are small green peppers with a mild, sweet flavor, though an occasional one surprises with noticeable heat. Rich in antioxidants, vitamins C and B6, and dietary fiber, these peppers support a healthy immune system, promote better digestion, and contribute to overall vitality. Low in calories and naturally fat-free, they’re a nutritious addition to many meals. Traditionally enjoyed in Spanish cuisine, they are often pan-fried in olive oil and sprinkled with sea salt, creating a simple yet delicious dish. While their preparation is typically healthy, the addition of excess oil or salt can affect nutritional value, so moderation is key. Perfect as a snack, tapa, or side dish, Padron Peppers offer a delightful combination of flavor and health benefits that make them a favorite in Mediterranean-inspired diets.
