  • HOW TO USE

    Grind whole peppercorns fresh in a pepper mill to release their full aroma and flavour. Freshly ground pepper enhances meats, seafood, vegetables, soups, sauces, and salad dressings.


    Peppercorns can also be lightly crushed using a mortar and pestle to create a coarse seasoning for steak rubs, barbecue blends, and marinades.


    Grinding just before cooking releases the natural oils in the pepper, producing a stronger and more aromatic seasoning than pre-ground pepper.
