Also known as Dune Pepper, Alder Catkins bring a piney, woodsy, and peppery flavor to your dishes. They are best when ground and mixed with ingredients. If you prefer to sprinkle them directly on a dish, it is recommended to grind them with a mortar and pestle rather than a pepper grinder, as the catkins can be slightly resinous and sticky.
Note: If this is a new food for you, be attentive when consuming.
