Mild, long, Peppers.



These Peppers are the French equivalent of the Spanish Padron Peppers. Here they are known as Piment long doux des Landes. The Landes region of France being that lower part of the West coast, before arriving in Spain. 

As the names suggests, they are mild Peppers, and are gently fried in Olive Oil to be eaten as a snack with drinks etc.

They are one of my favourite Summer crops, and I was quite surprised to see that there were already several awaiting my attention.


A few minutes in the pan until soft and blistered, a very slight sprinkle of fleur de sel, and you have a real treat. They are surprisingly delicious.

I'll stick to ripe capsicum, easy to grow and tasty.

Graham Edwards said...

I would try those in a flash although, for some reason, I find the texture of most fried peppers rather unpalatable.

New World said...

They sound ok as a snack with drinks.

JayCee said...

They do look very good. I usually prefer peppers mixed with other veg. I'm afraid that I don't enjoy one on its own.

John Going Gently said...

Yes,

They sound quite nice. As a non salt person, I am sure they would be ok without, or maybe a little black pepper.

Cro Magnon said...

I'll try to find some seeds for you; you might be converted.

Cro Magnon said...

These become very soft and silky, they're not at all like other peppers.

Cro Magnon said...

They're perfect like that; something to nibble on, just like in a Tapas bar.

Cro Magnon said...

You might change your mind! These are nothing like our usual green peppers.

Cro Magnon said...

They really do need that little touch of good quality salt, I don't think black pepper would do the trick.

I try not to add salt to things and when I really feel it necessary I use Maldon Sea Salt. Nothing else seems available round here.

We eat fried peppers, peppers which are long and thinnish. Yours sound perfect on a summers day

Cro Magnon said...

I don't like cheap salt; I don't know why, because it's all much the same in the end.

Cro Magnon said...

They really are nice, they go with almost everything or any occasion.

I like Shishitos which look similar to yours. We grill them up with olive oil and salt and are wonderful snacks. I have four plants and three are producing quite a few already. My Padrons have flowers but no peppers yet.

Cro Magnon said...

I think they're the same thing, they certainly look similar. I can't get Padron seeds here, and these are the next best thing.

Sue said...

Yours are much longer than ours. We will have to wait until we start enjoying them for lunch.

Cro Magnon said...

I've just picked a second lot for supper; we're having a 'Compost Fry-Up' tonight.

This sounds so wonderful. We do this with Japanese Shishito Peppers. They are mild but every once in awhile you can get a hot one !
My favorite dish is Ebi Shishito (Shrimp with Peppers) Love it !

Cro Magnon said...

I'm pretty sure they're the same thing, or as near as possible. Ours are growing thick and fast at the moment, so I'll have to look out for that Ebi Shishito recipe!

Thanks for the idea cooking the pepper like that.
