8 ounces lean ground beef -- 94% lean

1/2 tablespoon nonpareil capers

1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt

In a small, nonstick skillet, saute the beef until cooked through. Break up large pieces with the back of a spoon.

AuthorNote: In Cuba, picadillo is served with black beans and rice.

Why Use Freshly Ground Pepper? Freshly ground pepper has a fresher, spicier flavor than ground pepper. To keep it free flowing, ground pepper is often packaged with fillers that can dull the flavor. Whole peppercorns take just seconds to grind in a peppermill.
