Padron
Padrón peppers are small, green Spanish chilli peppers, typically about 5 cm (2 in) long with a slightly wrinkled, elongated shape. They’re most often harvested while still unripe and green, giving them a mild, slightly grassy flavour with a hint of nuttiness when cooked.
Their charm lies in the “pepper lottery” — while most are mild, a few can surprise you with noticeable heat. On the Scoville scale, they range from 500 to 2,500 SHU, meaning most are about as mild as a banana pepper, but the hotter ones can approach the lower end of a jalapeño’s heat. With this years heat waves, the plants have suffered some ‘heat stress’ and our Padron Peppers seem to be generally more spicier than usual.
They’re traditionally pan-fried in olive oil and sprinkled with coarse sea salt, making them a popular Spanish tapas dish.

The friggitello is a classic Italian sweet pepper, often called the Italian frying pepper. It’s typically harvested while still green and has a sweet, slightly tangy flavor with just a hint of bitterness. The flesh is thin-walled, making it quick to cook—especially when fried whole in olive oil, which is the traditional preparation in Tuscany.
On the Scoville scale, friggitello peppers range from 0 to 500 SHU, meaning they are very mild and often perceived as having no heat at all. There’s also a Greek variety that’s a bit sweeter and commonly used in salads or pickled.
