Made from the unripe drupes that are used for black and white pepper, green peppercorns are young and immature when picked. Sulfur dioxide, freeze drying, pickling, or canning methods are used in order to preserve the green color that otherwise oxidizes and turns brown. In the regions where peppercorn vines can grow, fresh green berries are often added to dishes as a garnish or as an ingredient to curry pastes.
Dehydrated green peppercorns are easy substituted for peppercorns in brine, or pickled peppercorns, by re-hydrating them in liquid one hour before use. Warm water works well, but wine, broth, or any other liquid can just as easily be used.
This whole green pepper has a uniform light-green color with the characteristic aroma and pungent flavor of fresh green pepper. The aroma is somewhat piney, even with hints of resin and camphor. There are small squeaks of hoppiness that one might normally associate with beer. (A good enough excuse to use green peppercorn when beer braising meats.) The flavor isn’t as spicy as black pepper, nor as pungent. Instead, it’s fresh, perky, and piquant. Whole green peppercorns make for an excellent addition to poultry, fish, vegetable, and milder game meats. Green peppercorns go especially well with very fresh or fruity tasting foods. Try them ground on salads, steamed vegetables, salsas, and in sauces.
Green Peppercorn Cooking Hints

French, Creole, and Thai cuisine are well-known for their use of green peppercorns.
Substitute green pepper in dishes that have lively and fresh flavors.
Dehydrated green peppercorns are easy substituted for peppercorns in brine by re-hydrating them in liquid one hour before use.
Use this Green Peppercorn where a softer note and somewhat sweet black pepper flavor is required. Perfect for use in creamy salad dressings, vinaigrettes, sauces, or marinades.
Basic Preparation
Any spice is best to use promptly after it has just been ground. Another way to add the Black Peppercorn flavoring is to place them in a cheese cloth bag and let simmer in a stew or soup, remove the bag before serving. Also notable, pepper looses its flavoring during extended cooing periods, so it is best to add towards the end of cooking.
