Tellicherry Peppercorns
Uses: Known as one of the finest peppers in the world, Tellicherry Peppercorns are a wonderful all-purpose pepper perfect for elevating everyday dishes. Their bold, robust, and slightly fruity flavor makes them ideal for seasoning everything from meats, vegetables, and sauces to soups, eggs, and salads.
Try them:
• Cracked over grilled steaks, pork chops, or roasted chicken.
• Sprinkled on roasted vegetables or potatoes for bold, earthy depth.
• Stirred into soups, stews, and sauces for a warm, peppery finish.
• Used to season eggs, salads, and fresh pasta.
• Blended into spice rubs or marinades for meats.
Background: Sourced from the Malabar Coast of India, Tellicherry peppercorns are named after the port city of Tellicherry (now called Thalassery), one of the oldest centers of the global spice trade. These peppercorns are harvested later than regular black pepper, allowing them to develop larger, more aromatic berries with a complex, bold flavor.
