Black Tellicherry pepper – Indian premium pepper with fruit notes
Tellicherry is not a place of origin but a quality grade. The name denotes the largest, ripest corns of the harvest from the Malabar coastal strip in Kerala, India – peppercorns that were allowed to ripen on the vine longer than usual before being harvested. This extended ripening makes the difference: Tellicherry pepper develops a more complex, fruity aroma with more depth and less pure sharp heat than standard black pepper.
How to use
Tellicherry pepper unfolds its full potential freshly ground on the finished dish. It is the first choice for all dishes where pepper should act as a flavour component in its own right:
- Steak and beef fillet – as a crust in steak au poivre or as a table pepper
- Game – venison fillet, saddle of wild boar, deer
- Pepper sauce – freshly ground as the base of a reduced cognac pepper sauce
- Aged cheese – Parmesan, Comté, Manchego, Pecorino
- Carpaccio – as an elegant finishing spice
- Pasta and risotto – cacio e pepe, black risotto
Recipe idea: steak au poivre
Coarsely crush 2 tbsp Tellicherry pepper (mortar or back of a knife). Pat ribeye steaks (250 g each) dry, press in the pepper crust. Sear in a very hot cast-iron pan 2–3 minutes per side. Let the steaks rest. In the same pan fat, sweat 1 shallot, deglaze with 4 cl cognac, pour in 150 ml beef stock and 100 ml cream. Reduce, season to taste.
