Breakfast Tortillas are fresh and delicious with fried egg, cucumber salsa and top with a homemade chilli sauce or your favourite hot sauce, which harmonizes perfectly with the delicate fried egg. Both cucumber salsa and chilli sauce can be made ahead, and when ready to serve, warm up the tortilla wraps and fry eggs. You can also add some bacon and cheese for a even richer and more satisfying meal.

Puttanesca tomato sauce, originated from Naples, packed with black olives, garlic, chilli flakes, capers, oregano, and anchovies—is traditionally paired with various kinds of pasta. But this pleasantly spicy sauce is also supremely good with skin-on and bone-in chicken thighs that have been pan seared crispy first then simmered low and slow in the rich sauce to absorb all the flavours for an easy dinner that will be a hit with all the family. If desired, serve over some mashed cauliflower or zucchini noodles.

Fresh tuna steaks are crusted with black sesame seeds, then quickly seared and served rare, so be sure to use the best quality fresh tuna that you could find. It's quick and easy enough for a weeknight but also special enough for entertaining. Tuna is healthy, packs in nutrients, with lots of omega-3 fatty acids and protein. The underated runner beans, aka stringless beans, are a member of the bean family and they have a mild, pleasant taste. They are an excellent protein source, as 29% of their calories are from protein, and high in folate and fiber too.

This lean green superfood salad is easy to make, loaded with curly lettuce, sprouts, cucumber, arugula, avocado, and a simple black garlic vinaigrette. A nutrient-dense and gluten-free salad that's perfect as a light lunch or a side for some steak or seafood. The fermented black garlic adds depth and gives that extra something to the salad and the dressing. Feel free to use other leafy green and for even more protein, add some edamame to the salad.
Black garlic is fresh raw garlic that undergoes a slow, fermentation process under low heat and humidity. Due to the long fermentaion process (30-60 days), the cloves turn a distinct black color. The garlic’s texture and flavour change as well. It’s softer, chewier, and sweeter than regular raw garlic. According to Webmd, black garlic boasts higher concentrations of many nutrients, antioxidants, and other beneficial compounds, which may help improve the health of your liver, increased immunity, lower levels of cholesterol and triglycerides, and regulate blood sugar levels.

Pistachios, marzipan and raspberries snuggle together with a layer of fresh cheese cream in the tart recipe, dotted with fresh raspberries and more pistachios. The only way to achieve the beautiful green pistachio colour is to use shelled raw pistachios without papery brown skins or pistachio paste. I also added a teaspoon of green superfood powder to the pistachios cream, but it's completely optional. Besides raspberries, you can also use other berries or cherries. If you don't want to make your pie crust from scratch, you don't have to. Just buy a premade pastry crust. If the real butter crust is not available, you can still up-cycle store-bought pastry crust by brushing it with melted butter, then blind-bake the crust.

I used black pepper from Kerala--home to the best peppers in the world, but you can use Tellicherry or Kampot.

These chocolate truffles combine two favorite decadent ingredients – roasted salted macadamia nuts and white chocolate. Vanilla helps to enhance and balance the flavours of the white chocolate and macadamia nuts. It’s rich, creamy and delicious, and the contrast between the nutty saltiness of macadamia nuts to the sweetness of the creamy white chocolate truffle is totally irresistible. These are perfect for Valentine’s Day, Mother's Day or gifting to someone special.
Sweet, fruity with a peppery flavour, pink peppercorns, aka Schinus Berries, are either Peruvian Pepper (Schinus molle) or Brazilian Pepper (Schinus terebinthifolius). Both are very similar in flavour profile. They are actually not peppercorns at all and are not even related to the pepper nigrum plant. Pink peppercorns have a delicate, fragrant, sweet, and spicy flavour. They are reminiscent of a mild citrus zest and sweet berries. They are used to add a touch of both colour and flavour to many dishes, especially well in fruit sauces, in vinaigrette, desserts, fresh cheeses and chocolate, also ideal for soups, risottos and fish dishes.

A quick, creamy peppercorn sauce is the perfect accompaniment to steak, chicken, mushrooms, or even potatoes. Add a couple of tablespoons of brandy to the sauce for the extra flavour if desired. I used distinctive long pepper here, but regular black peppercorns work just as great. Another great alternative for the sauce would be bourbon smoked peppercorns, that would add some amazing smoky aroma and flavour.
Long pepper is a close relative of black pepper. As opposed to the small spheres of black pepper, the long pepper is 2-4cm long and conical, with tightly-clustered peppercorns. In India the long pepper is sometimes used in combination with other herbs in Ayurvedic medicine.
It has a sharp, warm and sweet flavour of liquorice and dark chocolate. It is sharper and more intense than traditional black pepper. Alongside the peppery spiciness, this amazing pepper delivers a taste similar to that of mixed spice thanks to the subtle hints of nutmeg, cinnamon, and cardamom. Long pepper can be used as whole, crushed in a mortar and pestle, or broken into pieces and put in a spice grinder. In sauces, broths or marinades, it can develop its slightly sweet flower scent. But with increasing cooking time, the sharpness increases too.
There are two types long pepper, India's piper longum, and piper retrofactum, which grows in Indonesia and tends to be cheaper and easier to find. It's not a common ingredient outside of India and southeast Asia, but it can be found online and in Asian markets.

Vitamin C rich, sweet snow peas add flavour and texture to many dishes, from quick stir-fries to salads and soups. Snow peas can be eaten raw or cooked. However, blanching snow peas will reduce the fibrousness of the edges of snow peas, and boost sweetness and brighten colour. Ready in 20 minutes, this is a light yet flavourful dinner you won't be able to resist.
Tellicherry and regular black pepper come from the same vine, but they are larger than regular black peppercorns. Unlike other black peppers, the Tellicherry is not immature but ripely picked. That's why Tellicherry peppercorns are more pungent and provide an increased complex flavor with added woodsy and citrus notes. It is considered one of the best pepper varieties in the world. Use these peppercorns to season meats, poultry, seafood, sauces, vegetables and desserts.

Pan-seared salmon fillets in the buttery, garlicky tomato-and-mâche cream sauce with freshly grated 30-month Parmigiano Reggiano is wonderfully rich and packed with flavours. Serve the dish with some warm homemade crusty bread to soak up every last drop of deliciousness. Mâche, aka lamb's lettuce or cornsalad, has long spoon-shaped dark leaves and a distinctive, tangy flavour. It is used raw in salads as well as served as a vegetable. You can use baby spinach instead.

Belgian endives are the star of this simple yet divine dish. They are delicate in texture and pleasantly bitter with sweet and nutty undertones. They can be enjoyed raw where they taste crisp and slightly bitter. They are also delicious cooked, either boiled, braised or baked, where their sharp flavour softens into a mellow, nutty sweetness. No rinsing or washing necessary as it will make it more bitter tasting. Just pull off and discard outer leaves or use a damp cloth to wipe the outer leaves and trim the base.
Tomato passata is an uncooked tomato puree made with very ripe red tomatoes that have been strained from seeds and skins. They are usually sold in glass jars or bottles. Sometimes it comes with basil but nothing more. If you can't find it, just use marinara / pasta sauce instead.
