Peppercorns: Fresh Ground Flavor (1x11)

Air date: Nov 12, 1983

Peppercorns, either whole or freshly ground, provide a flavour that is as essential to the Nouvell Cuisine introduced by France as it is to a Manhattan deli pastrami or the pork sausages England inherited from the Romans. This program criss-crosses the world to show how peppercorns are used in dishes from New York to Singapore.
