About De Padron Pimento
60 days. Small green peppers, generally mild, but occasionally one is hot, which accounts for its nickname: the Russian roulette pepper. Originally from the Galicia region of Spain where they are fried in olive oil and sprinkled with sea salt and served as tapas. Heat increases as they ripen to red.
