How to Use Black Peppercorns
Use black peppercorns whole in pickling and stocks, or grind them fresh in a pepper mill or mortar and pestle to release maximum flavour. Sprinkle freshly ground pepper over salads, pasta, meat, fish or roasted vegetables to elevate taste. Whole peppercorns can also be added to brines, sauces and marinades for depth of flavour. Grinding right before use delivers the most vibrant aroma and heat.
Nutritional Benefits
Black peppercorns are low in calories but rich in flavour and antioxidants, including piperine - a compound linked with digestive support and nutrient absorption. The spice can help enhance the taste of healthy meals without adding salt, making it a smart option for flavourful, balanced cooking.

Customer reviews
Sometimes when you buy peppercorns they can be disappointingly tame in the flavour you add. The Real Foods peppercorns have never disappointed me though, partly due, I'm sure, to the fact that I don't have to buy so many at a time that they are going stale by the time I use them.
