I am going to start trying to post quick tips for the kitchen each week. Today I want to talk about pepper. There are several different varieties of pepper. You have black, white-pink, or green. There are some that are combinations of those too. Black is the most common and is the strongest. It is a bit hot with a hint of sweetness. White has a mild flavor and the green is fresher and the pink has a lite citrus flavor. The Pampered Chef has a peppercorn medley that is a combination of all of these peppers. If you are dieting and you would like to spice up your meal reach for the pepper.
Now there are those brands you can buy that are already ground. These may lose their flavor over time. Think back to the last time you ate out and your server came around and asked, Would you like fresh pepper with that? Do you remember the aroma? Do you remember the wonderful flavor? You could have that every day. All you need is peppercorns and your own grinder. The Pampered Chef also has grinders as well as the Peppercorn Medley and a wonderful Himalayan Salt and sea salt.
There are many varieties to choose from. Check out your local supermarket.
Don't forget to pass the pepper tonight.
