I normally buy Lemon Pepper – I like the Masterfoods brand. But, I love to create recipes for products that I would normally buy and since I’d run out of my Lemon Pepper, I set myself that challenge!
I’m very happy to say that I came up with this recipe quite quickly and it’s a great copy for the original product. Now, that’s one more item I don’t have to put on my shopping list, thanks to my fabulous TM6.
Edited to add – my percentages were wrong! Too much salt, 70g is enough.
Now I can put this recipe into my Created Recipes in Cookidoo 3.0!
Here it is!

Author: The Bush Gourmand
Recipe type: Condiments
: Australian
Ingredients
- 70g rock salt
- Thinly peeled rind from 4 lemons
- 20g peppercorns
- 1 tsp celery seeds

- ½ to 1 tsp olive oil
- a couple of drops of Doterra lemon oil (optional)
Method
- Place salt and lemon peel in the bowl of the TM6 and grind for 6 seconds/speed 9.5.
- Scrape down and check to see if it needs a little more grinding. If so set for 3 seconds/speed 9.5.
- Add peppercorns and sugar. Grind 6 seconds/speed 9.5. Add a couple of seconds if necessary.
- Add the remaining ingredients and blend for 6 seconds/speed 3.
- Scrape down and scrape base well. Do a final blend for 3 seconds/speed 8.5.
- Scrape base well with spatula and place into clean jars.
- Label and seal.
- Keeps for at least 6 months.
Notes
1. To make rice flour, mill 100g white rice for 1 min 30 sec/speed 10.
2. Use Lemon Pepper on fish, lamb or where you want to add a lovely lemony peppery flavour.
3. To use in sauces, reduce the salt in the sauce recipe.
