This is my new favorite summer appetizer. I cannot believe my CSA (shoutout to Potomac Vegetable Farm) has had fresh, local shishito peppers almost every spring/summer week for two years and I did not know how to prepare them! This really is the simplest party appetizer you could possible make. And SO salty and delicious, with excellent flavor. They aren’t spicy unless you want them to be! A friend recently told me that Shishito Peppers, a Japanese varietal, aren’t naturally spicy but sometimes end up that way in the US because we tend to plant them close to other hot pepper varietals. The natural shishito is sweet and earthy with very delicate flesh.
