TheChef
Says

Remember how tough it was to
get pepper-any kind-for cook
ing and table use during World
War II? I remember once the
only thing I could find was a jar
of some sort Of special aromatic"
or "spiced" peppercorns. that
went, perforce. into salads. eggs
and everything else. appropriate
or not. The find Of tin Of black
or white pepper called for real
rejoicing and whole black pepper
corns were jealousy guarded in
the little table mills.
Now, Of course, you can get
pepper when you wish-but not
at prewar prices by any means.
And a news dispatcha brings it to
my attention that a pepper mo-
nopoly is enriching India these
days. War destruction of Indo-
nesian vines opened the way for
the India boom, and, according to
some estimates, when you pass
the pepper you are putting a
1000 per cent profit into the
pockets Of Indian pepper growers.
1t takes five years to raise q
pepper plant from a Seeding to
the stage where it is productive.
The young vine Is extremely deli
cate and requires a terrific amount
of care.
On the Malabar Coast Of India
the pepper growers obtain both
white and black pepper from the
vines; black pepper from the
dried fruit, white from the same
fruit when ripe and also from the
black pepper when the outer coat
has been removed.
If you learned your history well.
you will remember that the quest
for pepper opened new worlds and
set empires to rising and falling.
Our own continent was discovered
during the search for trade routes
to the spice islands of the East.
Portugal, Britain and the Neither
lands waxed fat on trade that
started with spice%pepper top
most among them.
In early France, church dues
and rents, as well as taxes, could
be paid in pepper. In the fifth
century the Visigoths demanded
and received 5000 pounds of pep
per as part Of a ransom!
Here in America we are in
clined to buy our pepper ready
Iground-but the true gourmet
spurns this short cut and insists
on whole peppercorns, ground in
Ia special table or kitchen mill.
A really good mill should be
part Of every brides dowry-and
you can never go wrong II you
choose such an item for a wedding
gift.
