Green peppercorns are the unripe fruit of the same plant that produces black and white peppercorns. Green pepper is know for its fresh, crisp flavor that is quite different from other peppercorns. These guys pair well with almost any type of meat or poultry and seafood in particular; use in place of black pepper in souffle, steak rubs and anything with citrus flavors. Freeze-dried peppercorns retain their plump, unwrinkled appearance even after drying and are preferable for any application that requires whole peppercorns.
Spices and herbs should be stored away from light, heat and moisture. However, storing spices in the refrigerator or freezer may actually shorten their shelf life and they risk picking up other food odors. In general, whole spices have a longer shelf life than ground spices. Depending on the spice and how well it is stored, a good rule of thumb is six months to a year for powdered spices and longer for whole spices and seeds. The best way to determine if your spices or herbs are still fresh is to close your eyes and sniff – if you cannot immediately tell what the herb or spice is, toss it!
