Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Black peppercorns
- 1 tablespoon White peppercorns
- 1 tablespoon Green peppercorns (dried or freeze-dried)
- 1 tablespoon Pink peppercorns
- 1 tablespoon Sichuan peppercorns
- 1.5 tablespoons Tellicherry peppercorns
- 1 teaspoon Cubeb peppercorns
- 1 teaspoon Long pepper (broken into small pieces)
Instructions
Measure out each type of peppercorn as listed in the ingredients.
Ensure the green peppercorns are fully dried or freeze-dried before using to prevent moisture in the blend.
Add all the peppercorns into a spice grinder, mortar and pestle, or blender. If you prefer a coarser blend, opt for a mortar and pestle; for a finer blend, use a spice grinder.
Grind the peppercorns in short pulses to your desired consistency. Avoid over-grinding if you want a coarser texture.
Once blended, use immediately or transfer the Eight Peppercorn Blend to an airtight container to preserve freshness. Store in a cool, dark place for up to 6 months.
Sprinkle on meats, vegetables, salads, or any dish that could benefit from a complex and aromatic pepper flavor.
