Nothing compares to taste of blistered Shishito peppers. They usually they have little heat to them but, you might find one with a little bite now and then. I first tasted them while living in Korea, and instantly fell in love with these little gems. No doubt you will too! To date, the only way I’ve prepared them is by using freshly chopped in salads or seared in a hot skillet with a little sesame oil, as below.

Permission to breathe
Breathing is essential to life. Yet we often forget to breathe or we don’t breathe deeply and fully. This can be due to unresolved emotional pain, or daily life experiences, that cause us to self protect. While we can still remain functional with shortened breathing, it is not an optimal way to live.
