Not all shishito peppers are created equal… Eating shishitos is like playing a game of Russian Roulette with heat. About 1 of out every 10 packs a little punch, but nothing that won’t keep you from coming back to grab more. Charred Shishitos with flaky sea salt is one of the easiest, most beautiful, flavorfully complex dishes you’ll ever make. Once you make them once, you’ll be hooked.
