Black Pepper

Category:

Black pepper is produced from the dried, unripe fruits of the pepper vine. The fruits are harvested while still green and then dried, developing their familiar dark, wrinkled appearance.

Black pepper is available as:

  • Whole peppercorns
  • Coarsely crushed pepper
  • Freshly ground pepper powder
  • An ingredient in spice blends

Its characteristic pungency comes mainly from a naturally occurring compound called piperine.
