Drop it like it’s hot We know the amazing variety of local produce here in California makes you all green with envy. But that won’t stop us from giving a shout-out to our favorite produce du jour: the shishito pepper. Chef Ted Hopson slices them thin with Fresno chiles and bell peppers, then adds raw beef and ssamjang sauce for a beef tartare lettuce wrap he’s got on the menu at The Bellwether . Find the recipe on the Good Food blog and head to the farmers’ market now with your reusable public radio tote bag to load up on peppers! Music: "Drop It Like It's Hot (Instrumental)" by Snoop Dogg, featuring Pharrell
