These small, finger sized, peppers were brought to Spain from Mexico by returning conquistadores and first cultivated in a Galician monastery, where they became known as Pimientos de Padron.
They have now become a popular tapa in Spain, served fried and sprinkled with salt; they taste fresh and mild with an occasional spicy pepper providing an exciting contrast!
