In our monthly delve in to The Kitchen Café Spice Cupboard spice expert Ghillie Basan looks at black pepper.
Salt and pepper are two of the most commonly used seasonings. Adding the right amount at the right time in the cooking process can be a matter of taste but can completely change a dish. Chefs by their own admittance probably use too much and if you use seasoning while cooking should you add more at the table? Fiona Burrell from the Edinburgh New Town Cookery School and chef Neil Forbes tell us what alternatives to use to salt and how to salvage something if you've accidently added too much.
