By the speed of which your package was moving through the states I was expecting a delivery to you sometime this week. Let's hope some divers recovered it from the Bermuda Triangle and sent it on its way - LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony b Posted April 26, 2017 Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 Well, guess what showed up in my post today?? That's right!! Woo-Hoo!! Up close and personal. And, some ground ones, too? BONUS!!! So, don't be diss'ing USPS. My stuff arrived just fine, as did Aussie's package from me. I'm thinking that Bermuda Triangle overlaps GA!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted April 26, 2017 Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 OK, Aussie, fess up! This stuff isn't peppercorns, it's "purple crack!" One taste, and I'm already hooked!! You Bastard! And, my tongue is still tingling 15 minutes later*. Hoping that you sent enough to supply my new habit for the coming year - maybe if I step on it a couple of times with sea salt! But, seriously, Thanks Tons, Aussie. Can't wait to start cooking with this stuff! * (For the rest of you, it's like tasting Szechuan peppercorns - it has a slight numbing sensation on your tongue. But the flavor is not the same; think nutmeg with more herbal notes - oregano or epazote.) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Ora Posted April 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 Purple Crack lol great news tony you are going to love the stuff this should mean ckreef should be getting his parcel anytime now the ground stuff is lemon myrtle and pepper berry .interesting the paths they have taken obviously quicker from Perth to CR.

I should have figured that out from the "lm/pb" scribe on the label. Losing it in my old age, I suppose?? I did mix up some Pepper Salt, per you guidance: 2 parts Kosher salt to 1 part Pepper Berries, by weight. Then into the spice grinder and viola - purple salt! That's what I was referring to by "purple crack!" I can see me putting that on EVERYTHING! I also broke down the Kee into Nickel (2 oz) and Dime (4 oz) FoodSaver bags - LOL! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's Australia's version of lemon pepper. Lemon Myrtle tastes surprisingly just like lemons. That pepper crack mix sounds just like what I'm looking for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckreef Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 More epic for me, I know that. Since we couldn't talk @bosco into a 42" we had to create our own shipping thread - LOL I can't wait to get the pepper berries. I've been working with @Aussie Ora for about a year and a half to get some. It's been a long wait. As for Aussie's package coming from me - USPS better not screw that up. A bunch of time, effort and cash went into that package. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, I did have to sign for it. Hang in there, Charles! Made some Purple Crack scrambled eggs w/cheese for brekkie this morning (see, eating these Aussie spices makes you talk like that - LOL!) Very tasty and it did turn the egg whites purple - ended up looking like a slab of blue cheese on the plate. Looking forward to using them in my bacon brine instead of juniper berries and mixed in with regular peppercorns and coriander for pastrami! Plan to use the Lemon Myrtle/Taz Peppercorn mix on some lamb chops tonight. Hey, Aussie, you tried my "house lamb seasoning" yet? More curious to see if I got the heat level down enough for Dee. I really dialed it back from my normal recipe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
