Gird your loins, cooking purists: I've got something to say! (read this like Jerri Blank would say in "Strangers With Candy").
I don’t like using black pepper and don’t often include it in my cooking. In my recipes, when I say to “season,” I mean with kosher salt. Or, in some instances, with paprika, garlic powder, onion, powder or something along those lines — not black pepper.
