White Peppercorns

Description

Our white peppercorns are a great addition to pepper grinders and add earthy, delicate flavors to a wide range of international dishes. Whole peppercorns are great for blending into marinades or freshly crack into cream-based soups and sauces for a mild peppery zest without the colored flecks. White pepper is a lovely alternative to black pepper which has much more pungent zest.

Whole white peppercorn offers you the perfect way to maintain a long-lasting flavor without sacrificing freshness. Known as the Ãking of spices, white pepper is a light beige color, so you can add a mild peppery flavor to your light-colored meals without ruining their presentation. White pepper comes from the same variety of plant as traditional black pepper, but the fruit is fully ripened and soaked to remove the outer hull before drying and packaging.

Description:

Piper nigrum is a member of the Piperaceae family. Native to southern India, this evergreen climbing vine is now cultivated in tropical regions around the world. Black, green, and white pepper all come from the same plant but are harvested and processed in varying methods. White peppercorn is the seed of the fruit of Piper nigrum, which is plucked once fully ripened on the vine. White pepper is traditionally processed by soaking the ripe peppercorns in water for approximately one week, removing the outer papery skin, and then drying them.

Usage:

White pepper is popular in European, Chinese, and Thai cooking. Whole white peppercorns can be incorporated into marinades or freshly crushed and sprinkled into stir fries. White peppercorns can also be added to a pepper grinder for the freshest, most complex flavors. Grind whole peppercorns onto salads, potatoes, chowders, and any dish where a uniform light-color is desired.

While black pepper may be popular for its zippy taste and healthful qualities, white pepper provides nuanced and delicate flavors to enliven culinary dishes and help support the daily functioning of the digestive system. Compared to black pepper, white pepper tends to be more floral, earthy, and have greater complexity.

To maintain freshness, this spice is shipped in glass bottles. That’s because glass jars can preserve the freshness of spices for up to 2 years. Glass is an awesome option for storing spices because it doesn’t react to ingredients, unlike plastics and wood. Glass doesn’t typically conduct heat and you can see what’s inside to keep track of inventory.
