Green Peppercorns in Brine

Delicias Green Peppercorns in Brine are whole young peppercorns preserved in a light brine to retain their fresh, vibrant character. Picked before they fully mature, green peppercorns have a softer texture and a bright, gently spicy flavour that is milder and more aromatic than dried black pepper.

These tender peppercorns are widely used in classic European cooking, particularly in creamy sauces where their delicate heat and subtle herbal notes shine through. Because they are preserved in brine, the peppercorns remain soft and can be crushed or used whole, releasing bursts of flavour throughout a dish.

Green peppercorns in brine are a favourite ingredient for steak sauces, pâtés and rich savoury dishes, but they also work beautifully with chicken, fish and vegetables. Their balanced heat adds depth without overpowering the other ingredients, making them a versatile addition to both traditional recipes and modern cooking.
