Hi,

There's a pepper called 'Padron' which sounds like the Italian ones. It's Spanish however from the Galicia region, not Italian, and it's a 'frying' pepper used for tapas. It's usually cooked in the same way, with some garlic, salt and olive oil. If these are the tapas peppers I've had, it's very delicious. I'm going to try growing these.
