Simply Organic Black Pepper is chunkier and more intense than other peppers, and provides a woody, floral, pungent flavor alongside a penetrating aroma. It is slightly coarser than finely-ground pepper. This spice is ideal for cooking or placing on the table in a shaker. It can be used with almost any savory dish.

In India, we and partner Peermade Development Society provided farmers the tools to help create ideal soil conditions for the organic pepper vines to thrive. In Vietnam, we worked with Pacific Basin Partnership and the non-profit Sustainable Food Group, providing training and technical support on soil nutrition, food safety and pest management practices to help farmers transition into organic peppercorn production.

Powerhouse Sardine Sandwich
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Canned sardines are far from new (they go as far back as the 1800s!), but only recently have they caught the eye of a younger generation. They’re affordable, rich with nutrients, a convenient pantry staple and – with the right third-party certification – are a sustainable alternative to other seafood and livestock. Sardines contain vitamins, minerals, protein and omega-3 fatty acids. Oftentimes they’re lightly smoked and canned in olive oil, adding to a richness in flavor that’s versatile across recipes like salads, sandwiches or even enjoyed on their own.
If you’re new to sardines, this sardine sandwich is the perfect introduction. You’ll experience a variety of familiar and delicious textures and flavors that complement the tinned fish. An apple cider vinegar dressing with dill coats a generous topping of arugula, tomatoes and onions, and the sardines are marinated in fresh lime juice. Use the bread of your liking to sandwich the flavors and juices.

Powerhouse Sardine Sandwich
- 2 4.4 oz. sardine tins (drained & deboned)
- 1/2 lime (juiced)
- 1 tomato (small to medium thinly sliced)
- 1 small red onion (thinly sliced)
- 1 cup arugula or arugula green sprouts
- 1/2 tsp. dill
- 1 Tbsp. avocado oil mayonnaise
- 1/2 tsp. Himalayan salt
- 1/2 tsp. black pepper
- 1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tsp. apple cider vinegar
- In small bowl, whisk together olive oil, apple cider vinegar, salt and pepper. Add tomatoes, arugula, onions and dill, and gently combine.
- Add sardines to separate small bowl with lime juice and let marinate.
- Spread avocado-mayo on bread slices and add arugula, tomatoes, onions and dill.
- Place sardines on top, close the sandwich and cut in half.
- Additional toppings can be capers, chopped olives, micro greens and hot peppers.
- Any lettuce will work but arugula adds a peppery, nutty flavor.
- Other spice options could be red pepper flakes or even hot sauce.
- For bread, try ciabatta or kaiser rolls, rye or pumpernickel, sprouted or homemade protein bread.
