Black pepper is a critical ingredient in practically every meal served at tables around the globe. Known as the king of spices, black pepper is undoubtedly on your list of essential condiments at any high-volume establishment. McCormick Culinary Black Pepper is coarse ground and has a mesh size of 10. If you prefer a finer texture, you can pour this coarse black pepper in an adjustable-grind type grinder with the mesh size you desire. Black peppercorns offer their most robust flavor after they mature or ripen. Piperine, a compound found in the peppercorn's skin, gives black pepper its signature taste.
