I watch a lot of Food Network shows. I am constantly amazed at how the chefs use black pepper. They'll be making a huge pot of something or other and then add a pinch of salt (okay) and a couple of grinds of fresh ground black pepper. I know they're rushed, but it's nowhere near enough! You just can't taste that tiny amount of pepper! When I try recipes, I always wind up putting a lot more pepper in than they use on the show. Does anybody else do this? Or is it that everyone else can taste that tiny amount of pepper and I just have a lousy palate?
