Blistered Shishito Peppers

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Aioli

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise with kimchi and mix until well blended. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Blister the Peppers

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shishito peppers and cook, turning occasionally, until they are blistered and slightly charred, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Season the Peppers

    Once the peppers are blistered, remove from heat. Sprinkle with togarashi, chili flakes, and salt to taste.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve the blistered shishito peppers hot with the kimchi aioli on the side for dipping.
