I was at my local Farmer's Market with a neighbor and she asked if I had ever had shishito peppers. I told her I was familiar with them and that they seemed to have recently burst on the culinary scene but that I had never eaten them. They are popular as a side dish in Korean cooking. She said she roasts hers with a little olive oil and sprinkles them with sea salt. I looked at a few recipes on-line and decided to blister them in a cast iron skillet. I tossed the peppers in a little canola oil then put them in a piping hot cast iron skillet and cooked until they were soft with a nice char on the skin. I sprinkled a little pink Himalayan sea salt on them and what a delicacy!
