How to Make Lime Pepper Seasoning

  1. Zest one lime using a microplane or fine grater, collecting approximately 1 tablespoon of zest.
  2. In a spice grinder or mortar and pestle, combine 1 tablespoon of lime zest, 2 tablespoons of freshly cracked black peppercorns, and 1 teaspoon of sea salt.
  3. Grind until you have a well-mixed, fragrant powder. If using a mortar and pestle, this may take a few minutes of vigorous grinding.
  4. Store your homemade Lime Pepper Seasoning in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. Use it to season everything from steaks and fish to salads, vegetables, and even popcorn!
