And that’s how the wife of the captain does it
For this dish, I don’t use a simple black pepper, but a special pepper mixture called “Jahreszeiten Gewürz” which means season’s seasoning of a German spice specialist called “Altes Gewürzamt”. This is my absolute favorite spice with tomatoes. It is a sort of pepper (piper nigrum) in five different processing stages. Steaks and tomatoes? Only with good salt and Jahreszeiten Gewürz, nothing else.
