Guess what?!!

Almost every grocery store has shishito peppers here in Bend, Oregon! I think because maybe there are more Asians here than in the Midwest? Anyway, these peppers are HUGE!!

I bought a bag of them, and blistered them for appetizers tonight before dinner. Drizzled smoked paprika aioli on them. The kids loved them!

I am wondering if they are a different variety, because these were nearly the size of jalapeños, and could easily be stuffed. I am so happy to get a “fix” while I’m out here!

Interesting! Our store has them just during the summer. Normal size. commercially bagged. Not too popular or known, sometimes the peppers look old and drying. I have never bought any.
