Description

Best known for its ability to spice up meals and enhance the taste of foods, Black Pepper essential oil is a multi-purpose oil that has a variety of uses and benefits. The sharp flavour of Black Pepper makes it an ideal addition to meats, soups, and entrées. However, because of Black Pepper’s chemical components, this essential oil is much more than just a handy spice in the kitchen. Black Pepper essential oil is high in monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes, which are natural chemicals known for their antioxidant activity.

Primary Benefits

  • Regarded as one of the most flavourful essential oils.
  • A versatile flavouring component widely used across the world in savoury dishes, commonly ground from peppercorn form.
  • Stimulating, herbaceous flavour ideal for soups, salads and seasoning for savoury recipes.

Uses

  • Add to meats, soups, entrées, and salads to enhance food flavour.
  • For an unforgettable steak, try adding a drop of Black Pepper essential to your steak marinade.
  • Combine Black Pepper with Cilantro oil to give your next meal a hint of spice.

Cooking with Black Pepper

It takes far less of an essential oil to flavour your food than dry seasonings, spices, or other flavouring agents. Because essential oils are so potent, even the tiniest amount can add a serious blast of flavour to your dish. When using Black Pepper oil in cooking, it is best to use the toothpick method – dip the tip of a clean toothpick into the essential oil bottle and stir the toothpick into your ingredients. After you’ve stirred the toothpick around in the dish, do a taste test to see whether you want to add more of the oil or not.
