Peppercorn

Peppercorns contain an impressive list of plant derived chemical compounds that are known to have disease preventing and health promoting properties. Peppers have been in use since ancient times for its anti-inflammatory, carminative, anti-flatulent properties.
Peppercorns are composed of health benefiting essential oils such as piperine, an amine alkaloid, which gives strong spicy pungent character to the pepper. It also contains numerous monoterpenes hydrocarbons such as sabinene, pinene, terpenene, limonene, mercene, etc., which gives aromatic property to the pepper.
The above-mentioned active principles in the pepper may increase the gut motility as well as the digestion power by increasing gastro-intestinal enzyme secretions. It has also been found that piperine can increase absorption of selenium, b-complex vitamins, beta-carotene, as well as other nutrients from the food.
Black peppercorns contain a good amount of minerals like potassium, calcium, zinc, manganese, iron, and magnesium.
Potassium is an important component of cell and body fluids that helps controlling heart rate and blood pressure.
Manganese is used by the body as a co-factor for the antioxidant enzyme, superoxide dismutase.
Iron is essential for cellular respiration and blood cell production.
Peppercorn is a very close family member of black pepper which is most commonly used in our daily diet.

Ice Cream Profiteroles recipe

Ice Cream Profiteroles

Profiteroles are a basic pate a choux dough filled with ice cream . but, they look so classy! the pate a choux can also be used for cream puffs, eclairs, and other type of pastries. it can become an elegant dessert in no time, especially if you make the puffs in advance. it is true, you can make the puffs in advance and freeze them! take them out to defrost and fill them with your favorite filling. you can crisp them up again in the oven(300deg) for a 5-8 minutes, if you like. my favorite filling is ice cream, though you can fill them with whipped cream, pudding, or custards. yes, you can also fill them with savory fillings such as chicken salad, egg salad, crab meat, shrimp filling, and whatever you may fancy. try them with some soft herb goat cheese. they are great finger sandwiches for tea parties as well.
