What is Mixed Pepper?
Mixed Pepper is a balanced blend of whole peppercorns: green, black, and white pepper combined with aromatic Brazilian pink peppercorns. This gourmet mix combines visual elegance with complex flavors – perfect for refined cooking and everyday use alike.
How Does Mixed Pepper Taste?
The blend offers a full spectrum of flavors: green pepper brings freshness, black pepper adds sharpness, white pepper delivers a mild and musky touch, and pink peppercorns contribute floral, sweet notes reminiscent of juniper. The result is a harmonious spice combination with both character and balance.
Culinary Uses of Mixed Peppercorns
Mixed Pepper is suitable for seasoning grilled or roasted dishes, such as steaks, chicken, grilled vegetables, and fish. It also refines soups, stews, and salads. For best results, grind it fresh at the table or add after cooking to preserve its aromatic notes.
Pepper Varieties & Production
The three classic peppercorns in this blend all come from the Piper nigrum plant but differ in harvest time and processing:
- Green Pepper: Harvested unripe, then dried; milder and fresh in flavor
- Black Pepper: Harvested slightly later; fermented and dried, bringing pungent heat
- White Pepper: Fully ripe; outer skin removed after soaking, resulting in a musky, mild core
The pink peppercorns in this mix are sourced from the Schinus terebinthifolius tree, native to Brazil. While not a true pepper botanically, they add a unique fruity nuance to the blend.
How to Use Mixed Pepper
Use whole, coarsely crushed in a mortar, or freshly ground in a pepper mill. Mixed Pepper is a fantastic all-purpose seasoning, whether for everyday meals or special occasions. You can also create your own custom blends by adding other exotic pepper varieties.
