Drizzle Winter White Salad with Pink Peppercorn Vinaigrette

Pink Peppercorns have a fruity and peppery flavor. They aren’t actually, in fact, a member of the peppercorn family, but are the berries of Peruvian pepper tree that grows throughout South America.
Buy them whole and grind in a spice grinder, crush with a rolling pin in-between a piece of waxed paper… or buy ground.
