Blistered Shishito Peppers

We’ve been buying shishito peppers from the farmers market every time we go, and I’ve been craving them like crazy when we run out. They are insanely addictive and so simple to make. The method is so easy that I almost feel silly posting a recipe for it, but then I think about how just seeing this picture makes my mouth water, and I know it’s a recipe worth sharing.

There’s something magical about the way the blistered peppers taste with flaky salt. It’s kind of ridiculous how good they are. To make them even better, you can dip them in a creamy sauce for a nice contrast of the hot peppers with the cool sauce. Since they’ll be in season a bit longer, you should definitely give them a try if you’ve never had them. They may become your new favorite summertime snack, but don’t say I didn’t warn you if you find yourself longing for more as soon as you’ve finished them.
