Pimientos de Padrón Season Open

By Jackie McMillan

Get on the band wagon with some of Sydney’s finest restaurants (including Bentley Bar, Bodega, Buon Ricordo, Marque and Rockpool) and order some of the wonderful lime green Padrón Peppers from Midyim Eco Resort. A kilo will set you back $32.50 but once you’ve munched a salty, well-blistered pepper, you’ll be totally hooked. They make a wonderful bar snack either plain or stuffed with blue cheese or Taleggio ‘ guaranteed to intrigue even a ‘foodie’ dinner crowd. They’re only in season for a short time so place your order now online at www.midyimeco.com.au or by phone (07) 5435 2605. Richard and his team will pick your peppers in the morning, package and post them in the afternoon, and you’ll be eating them the very next day.
