This oil features spicy and floral with notes of fresh, ground peppercorn and a lingering, tingly Szechuan peppercorn finish. Use it to get peppercorn flavor without fresh peppercorns! This is great in marinades, dressings and aioli, and for sautéing, over ice cream, on popcorn or with creamy pasta or seafood.
Check out these recipe suggestions for this fantastic olive oil:
Grilled Romaine Salad with a Creamy Madagascar Black Peppercorn Dressing
You’ll need a fork and knife for this salad! It’s as delicious as it is pretty. The dressing is creamy yet light, with a pleasant, peppery flavor coming through from our Madagascar black peppercorn infused olive oil. If you already plan to have the grill (or grill pan) going for your main dish, this is the perfect side dish! Serves 4 to 6.
Cornmeal-Crusted Fried Green Tomatoes with a Creamy Madagascar Black Peppercorn Oil Dressing
These are fried with cornmeal to give an extra crunch to the outside layer of this classic dish. Drizzling the creamy dressing made with our Madagascar Black Peppercorn olive oil adds a burst of flavor you’ll love. Adapted from Local Dirt. Serves 2 to 4.
Pan-Seared Swordfish with Peppercorn & Lemon-Herb Butter
Swordfish is sometimes said to be the steak of the sea, so why not cook it like one? Giving the swordfish a good sear and allowing it to finish in the oven allows for even cooking and leaves the skillet with a fantastic base with which to make a quick finishing sauce. Inspired by Bon Appetit. Serves 2.
This is one of our favorite melons! A typical Honeydew is green inside, but this lemon, a cross between a Honeydew and a Musk melon, has orange flesh inside. Its flavor is like a sweeter Cantaloupe, thanks to its Honeydew heritage.
We work with the Smith family, a fourth-generation farming family who own and operate Turlock Fruit Company, to bring in these and other unique, outstanding melons each summer. We’ve worked with owner Don Smith and his company for over 35 years!
Tune in to hear more from Robbie Sigona, our produce buyer, as he gives tips on selecting a good melon and more. Visit our markets in Palo Alto and Redwood City, California, or find more info at www.sigonas.com.
