Pepper meets citrus – fresh, aromatic, versatile
Black pepper from Brazil forms the savoury base of this blend. 36% real lemon and 3% Australian lemon myrtle (Backhousia citriodora) give it a lively freshness that purely synthetic lemon aromas never reach. The result: a pepper with real fruitiness and a pleasant, non-intrusive heat.
How to use
Lemon pepper is an all-rounder in the kitchen. It goes especially well with:
- Fish and seafood – salmon, prawns, sea bass, lobster
- Poultry – chicken breast fillet, turkey, poularde
- Vegetables – grilled asparagus, courgette, artichokes
- Salads and dressings – grind directly into vinaigrettes or as a finish
- Pasta and risotto – e.g. lemon risotto or linguine with prawns
Added to light dishes as a table spice straight from the mill, it unfolds its fullest aroma.
Recipe idea: grilled salmon fillet with lemon-pepper butter
Mix 150 g soft butter with 1 tsp lemon pepper, a little grated lemon zest and chopped chives and chill. Grill salmon fillets (200 g each) on the skin side for 4 minutes, turn, let finish cooking for 2 minutes. Serve with a slice of lemon-pepper butter and mashed potato.
