Description

White pepper originates from India's tropical Malabar Coast, where it has been cultivated for over 4,000 years. Both white and black peppercorns come from the same piper nigrum vine but are processed differently. Black pepper is picked unripe and then dried, retaining its dark outer skin. White pepper is harvested ripe, and then soaked in water to remove the outer skin, resulting in a milder flavor. White pepper provides heat and spice without altering the color or aroma of delicate dishes. Use in walnut sauces, potato dishes, pickles, and anywhere you want spiciness without changing the flavor profile.
