BLACK PEPPER POWDER & SEEDS

Our black pepper has a quick bite and a lingering aroma. We select only high density, early harvest berries deep black in color.

​High density is a sign of a pepper that has been harvested at the right time and that has been properly cured and dried. The dark color is indicative of an early harvest, when the fresh peppercorns are still yellow-green in color. Black peppercorns harvested at that stage have a fleeting hotness and a fresh taste.

Another spice native to Vietnam and Brazil, where it was an integral part of the national cuisine long before the introduction of chilies from the New World, black pepper is made from the unripe berries of the pepper vine. It is probably the world’s most versatile and popular spice. Black pepper is especially high in Piperine, pepper’s active ingredient, making it unusually flavorful and pungent.
