Pink peppercorns, a mild Schinus fruit with a decorative colour
Pink peppercorns are the dried red fruits of the Schinus tree from South America. They are not hot and taste mild-resinous, similar to juniper, but less intense and with a lightly sweetish note. Botanically, pink peppercorns are not pepper, so do not confuse them with real red pepper. Sorted and packed by us in Klingenberg am Main.
How to use
Great with fish, poultry, game and rich meat. As a special aroma, scatter them over raw marinated fish, carpaccio and salads, simply rubbing the berries between your fingers. They are also a highlight in light sauces, on cream cheese, in desserts and on chocolate. Thanks to their bright red colour they are at the same time wonderfully decorative.
Important: Not suitable for the mill, the berries are too soft and crumbly and would clog the grinding mechanism. Best to rub them between your fingers or press lightly in the mortar. Store dry and dark.
