Pepper, Ground Black

Pepper, Ground Black
(Pepper, Ground Black) This is a photo of freshly ground black pepper.  We began with the pepper grinder making finely ground pepper and than then loosened up the grinder to produce coarsely ground black pepper.  We prefer the flavor of freshly ground black pepper to that of the factory pre-ground.  A pepper grinder is a nice touch to have on the table, so that anyone who wants to add some spiciness to their meal can do so, individually, as one would do with a pepper shaker.  See Peppercorns, black to learn more about black pepper.  See the nutritional chart below.

Vegan FlagThe above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
