Question: why are my shishito peppers turning red?
Answer: Shishito Peppers are one of my favorite types of peppers to snack on. Often I blister green Shishito peppers in hot oil and sprinkle them with sea salt or when it's grilling season, I dress them in olive oil and cook them over the flame for a few minutes. ... As the Shishito gets older, it turns brown and eventually red.
