Peppercorn Green

Peppercorn Green

Green peppercorns are exactly the same fruit as black peppercorns. The difference is that the fruit is harvested when it has reached full size but hasn't started to ripen.

This makes green peppercorns much less fiery, with a sweeter, fruitier flavour than their black counterparts but they still retain the distinctive earthy pungency.

Whole green peppercorns are an excellent addition to pâtés and terrines and when ground compliment gravy or poultry by adding a peppery flavour without the heat.

Stored correctly in Kitchen Herbarry packaging whole green peppercorns will keep their quality of flavour for up to four years.

Fun Fact: Green peppercorns are put into boiling water for 10 minutes immediately after harvesting. This kills the enzyme in the skin which would otherwise turn them black during drying and would thus make them impossible to distinguish from the later harvested black peppercorns
