About Pimientos padron

Pimientos de Padrón are small green peppers native to Spain, specifically the town of Padrón in Galicia. Traditionally served as a tapa, these vibrant, bite-sized peppers are pan-fried in olive oil until blistered and sprinkled with a touch of coarse sea salt. While most are mild in flavor, an occasional pepper packs a surprising spicy kick. Rich in antioxidants, vitamins C and K, and dietary fiber, Pimientos de Padrón offer a nutritious boost to your diet, supporting immune health, digestion, and overall vitality. Their preparation with olive oil can provide heart-healthy fats, though moderation is key to managing calorie intake. Low in calories and naturally vegan and gluten-free, these peppers make an excellent addition to balanced meals while delivering distinct Spanish flair. Their simple preparation and nutrient profile make them both a flavorful and health-conscious choice.
