Put Piment (d'Espelette) on It

Regular ground black pepper is great. An old standby. But... is it the preeminent pepper of Basque Country? Does it add a pop of color to your morning? Is it hung from the facades of a quaint French village then dried in wood-burning ovens? No.

This is why, at least on occasion, you should use piment d'Espelette. Add some pizazz to your breakfast plate.
