El Avion Pink Peppercorns

Description

A pink peppercorn (French: baie rose, “pink berry”) is a dried berry of the shrub Schinus molle, commonly known as the Peruvian peppertree. Although not related to commercial pepper (Piper nigrum) the pink/red berries are sold as pink peppercorns

Pink peppercorns lend foods a different kind of heat, closer to chiles than black pepper. They have the same peppery bite, but it’s wrapped in a sweet fruity flavour reminiscent of a berry with an attitude. They are slightly sweet and mild in spiciness, making them a great addition to butter-based sauces, salads, seafoods, dressings, and poultry dishes.

Origin: Spain
