Notes

  • Black pepper - Choose good quality fresh pepper corns for best taste and aroma.
  • Grinding - Make sure the mixer jar is dry and clean and free from moisture before grinding. Once the whole pepper corns are powdered it will look dark in shade, it will look moist too. So spread it on a plate dry and then store.
  • White pepper powder - You can use whole white pepper corn to make white pepper powder.
  • Consistency - Grind it coarse or fine as per your preference. If you want for omelette and egg make it even more coarse. I made it for adding to curries, gravies etc so made it fine.
  • Usage - Store in a clean dry jar. Use a dry spoon every time you use it to extend shelf life.
