Pimiento de Padron

Hello everybody

This is my first mature pod of this year.




This is a mild spanish variety. Usually, this pods eat green, fried in olive oil with salt like "tapas".

Cheers

Hi!

That looks very interesting. Does the variety have a name, since the picture itself doesn't ring bells?

EDIT: OMG I am such a moron. I'll go sit in a corner with a cone hat in my head.

But neat pods you got there.

Does someone have these in Finland? Looks good ( http://images.google.com/images?client=opera&rls=en&q=Pimiento%20de%20Padron ), so I think that there might be a number of growers interested of those seeds - including me Me myself don't have anything to swap with... but maybe someone has? (from Finland that is)
