Heera Black Pepper Whole 700g

£8.99

Whole black peppercorns hold their heat and aroma far longer than ready-ground pepper. Crack or grind them just before adding to a dish and they release a sharp, warming bite with a faint citrus note underneath. This pack suits a kitchen that goes through pepper quickly. Use whole peppercorns to season stocks, soups and marinades, where they infuse gently without turning bitter. Crush them coarsely for a peppery crust on steak or salmon, or grind fresh over curries, dals and biryanis for a proper kick. They also work well tied in a muslin bag for poaching liquids, then lifted out before serving. A pepper mill is the best way to use this pack day to day, giving you control over how fine or coarse the grind is for each dish. For recipes that need a stronger hit, such as black pepper chicken or a peppery gravy, crush the corns roughly with a pestle and mortar instead. Keep the pack sealed and stored in a cool, dark cupboard once opened, away from steam and direct sunlight. Whole peppercorns stay fresher for longer than pre-ground pepper, so this 700g pack is a practical size for households that cook regularly and prefer to grind their own.
