TIPS AND TRICKS
To crush green peppercorns, place green peppercorns in large resealable plastic bag. Close tightly. Pound with a rolling pin, mallet or heavy skillet until crushed.
Prepare as directed, using 1 1/2 teaspoons crushed Peppercorn Medley from McCormick® Peppercorn Medley Grinder adjusted to medium-grind setting in place of the crushed green peppercorns.
Instead of Gouda, substitute about 1/4 cup shredded Drunken goat cheese.
