The peppercorns are coarsely ground for a robust texture that’s perfect for sprinkling on steaks, burgers and roasts. One of the world’s most popular spices, black pepper comes from the dried, immature berries of the pepper vine. The dark brown to black, deep-set wrinkled berries, when ground, have a sharp aroma and kick of earthy heat. Keep one by the stove to add heat to everything from stews and casseroles to soups and dressings. At the table, sprinkle on salads, baked potatoes and vegetables.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIngredients\u003cbr\u003eCoarse ground black pepper\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eItems Details\u003cbr\u003eCoin Variety 1: Black Pepper\u003cbr\u003eItem Form: Powder\u003cbr\u003eDiet Type: Kosher\u003cbr\u003eSpecialty: Kosher, Vegan, high-fructose-corn-syrup-free, low-carb, vegetarian\u003cbr\u003eProduce Sold As Format: Pre-packaged\u003cbr\u003eRegion of Origin: America\u003cbr\u003eAllergen Information: Gluten Free\u003cbr\u003eGlobal Trade Identification Number: 00052100030258\u003c\/section\u003e\u003csection class=\"geo-faq\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill this bottle actually look clean and simple sitting on an uncluttered countertop?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.

Many minimalists consolidate to one high-quality, multi-purpose pepper, and McCormick's coarse grind works across finishing, cooking, and table use, so it can replace several specialty bottles in one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the FlavorSealed closure keep the bottle from leaving a mess on a clean counter?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
