Tasmanian pepper

Uses & Recipe Ideas

• Tasmanian pepper is a true rarity with a sweet, berry-like flavor, a well-balanced heat, and a unique play of colors. When sprinkled on light-colored foods like yogurt, sauces, cheese, or desserts, it reveals its purple specks, making dishes special not only in taste but also in appearance. It’s best to grind it fresh and use it thoughtfully—for game, lamb, fruit, chocolate, goat cheese, and anything else that could use an extraordinary peppery note.
• If Tasmanian pepper were a wine, …
• … then a fine port. Dark, fruity, and distinctive, with the warmth of ripe berries and a deep color in the glass. That’s exactly what Tasmanian pepper is like: sweet and berry-like, harmoniously spicy, and with that play of violet hues that instantly makes any dish extraordinary.
