Peppercorns are the whole, dried berries that get ground into everyday pepper, so a jar of them outlasts the fading aroma of pre-ground pepper. One metric cup (250 ml) of whole peppercorns weighs about 140 grams or 4.94 ounces, heavier than the same cup of ground pepper's 115 grams: grinding fluffs the powder with trapped air, while smooth round peppercorns settle and pack tightly. Most recipes call for a pepper mill grind by the teaspoon or pinch rather than a measured cup.

Freshly cracked peppercorns taste sharper than pre-ground pepper since the oils haven't oxidised yet, so weight matters when a recipe expects a specific grind. Measuring by weight keeps spice blends consistent even as your pepper mill's grind size varies.
