What Makes Native Australian Lemon Pepper Different

Native Ingredients with a Difference

Traditional lemon pepper is made by combining dried lemon zest with cracked black pepper and salt. It’s sharp, tangy, and simple. But native Australian lemon pepper brings a new level of depth and aroma — thanks to native herbs like Lemon Myrtle, Saltbush, and Tasmanian Pepperberry.

Lemon Myrtle is the hero of the blend. With a clean citrus aroma and smooth lemon flavour, it offers a brighter, fresher taste than standard lemon peel. Its naturally high citral content gives it a vibrant punch that stands out in seafood, chicken, and even vegetable dishes.

Saltbush adds a savoury, earthy note that balances the citrus. It grows naturally in arid regions and brings a mild saltiness, reducing the need for added salt. It’s the perfect base that ties the whole seasoning together.

Then there’s Tasmanian Pepperberry — native to Tasmania’s cool rainforests. It’s slightly fruity at first, then delivers a warm, peppery spice that lingers gently on the palate. Together, these three native plants create a lemon pepper that’s uniquely Australian — aromatic, balanced, and full of natural depth.

Perfect for Coastal Flavours

At Terrablendz, our Rocky Shore Lemon Pepper Seasoning was inspired by Australia’s coastal cooking traditions. It’s designed to pair beautifully with seafood — especially fish fillets, prawns, and calamari. The Lemon Myrtle highlights the freshness of the catch, while the Pepperberry brings gentle heat, and Saltbush adds a touch of umami.

It’s ideal for more than just seafood too. Sprinkle it over chicken, roast vegetables, or even potato wedges before cooking for a crisp, lemony lift. For an easy marinade, mix it with olive oil or melted butter and coat your fish before grilling or barbecuing.

Naturally Australian, Naturally Sustainable

Native herbs are grown and harvested right here in Australia — often in low-impact environments where the plants thrive naturally. Supporting native ingredients helps preserve traditional plant knowledge and encourages sustainable land use practices.

At Terrablendz, we source from Australian farms where these plants grow naturally, and package our seasonings in glass jars with bamboo lids — a recyclable and eco-friendly choice that keeps your herbs fresh while reducing plastic waste.

Why It’s Different

Native Australian lemon pepper isn’t just a flavour — it’s a reflection of Australia’s landscapes. Where traditional lemon pepper stops at zest and black pepper, our blend adds layers of native citrus, coastal saltiness, and rainforest spice.

Every sprinkle captures the taste of the wild — from the sunlit coasts to the mountain forests. It’s versatile, fresh, and unmistakably Australian.
