Black pepper is one of the most commonly used spices around the world. It is made by grinding peppercorns, which are the dried berries of the Piper nigrum plant. The peppercorns are usually sundried but can also be oven dried. This process leaves the outer layer of the peppercorn oxidized and black in color. Our ground black pepper is milled from the cleaned and steam sterilized berries of Piper Nigrum, resulting in a dark brown to black free flowing powder. It has a characteristic, hot and biting taste with pungent odor, typical of Black Pepper. It has become a kitchen staple in kitchens worldwide and its distinctive heat and bold flavor can enhance almost any savory dish.
