A colourful finishing touch with fruity, peppery flavour
Bring a new dimension to everyday cooking with Regional Co. Pink Peppercorns. Their distinctive pink colour and aromatic character make them a versatile addition to your spice collection, whether you are finishing a simple salad or preparing dinner for guests.
Pink peppercorns offer a delicate balance of fruity flavour and gentle pepperiness. Use a small amount to complement your ingredients and add an attractive finishing detail.
How to use pink peppercorns
Lightly crush the berries with a pestle and mortar just before use to release their aroma. Scatter them over finished dishes or incorporate a little into sauces and dressings.
Try them with:
- Fish and seafood: Add a fragrant finishing touch to baked salmon, grilled fish or prawns.
- Salads: Pair with citrus, fresh leaves or soft cheese.
- Creamy sauces: Stir lightly crushed berries into a sauce for vegetables, chicken or pasta.
- Roasted vegetables: Sprinkle over courgettes, carrots or squash before serving.
- Fruit dishes: Experiment with a small amount alongside strawberries or citrus desserts.
Start sparingly and adjust to taste, allowing the fruity and peppery notes to complement the dish.
Pink pepper for cocktails
Pink peppercorns also make an aromatic addition to your home bar. Try a few as a garnish for a gin-based cocktail or a citrus mocktail, or experiment with a small quantity in a strained botanical syrup.
Their colour makes them particularly useful when you want a simple garnish that adds visual interest.
