Ooo thank you! That looks delicious! I’ve never heard of green alder pepper before. It looks really interesting so I’m going to try and get my hands on some. The tree isn’t native to my region (I’m in Sweden) but I’m sure it can be imported.
It also goes by the names alnus viridis, green alder, dune pepper (or Poivre des dunes in French).
It is milder than pepper, with a bit of a coniferous resin taste. It looks a lot like long pepper but tastes very different.
It’s technically not a pepper, but the catkins from a variety of alnus brush.
I have no clue where you would find that in Europe and the places I know around here don’t seem to ship overseas.

This suggests maybe Austria, but I have no clue if they even eat it over there.
