It makes Padrón peppers a lot of fun to eat - a lot like the shishito pepper. It's impossible to know which chili will bring the punch in a batch, so it's a lot like culinary Russian roulette. The taste of the green Padrón pepper is rich: earthy (nearly nutty) and sweet. I've tried frying Padrón peppers in pure, smoking hot olive oil, but the high heat produces a more intense peppery, pungent flavor in the softer and sweeter Spanish Arbequina olive oil I prefer to use for this dish. It's a characteristic that's not necessarily bad in all contexts, and one that with a more.
