Shishito peppers are one of those simple dishes that rely entirely on good heat and restraint. When they’re cooked properly, they blister deeply, soften just enough, and stay bright and slightly grassy inside. I make them the way I’ve had them at restaurants, with a quick citrus soy glaze and a finishing sprinkle of flaky salt. They’re minimal, but they feel considered.

It’s balanced, bold, and keeps you full without weighing you down.
