Black pepper is probably the most popular spice in the world. These black peppercorns have an exceptionally fresh and spicy taste. They can be ground and are also suitable for tasting dishes.

Grind them with a pepper grinder or season the dishes with unground black pepper.

Seeds of the climbing tropical plant Piper nigrum. One of the most widely used spices in the world. It makes food spicy and, like other spicy spices, facilitates digestion.

Black pepper is a fruit that is picked unripe and dried at a certain temperature. Under these conditions, green peppers turn black, like tea leaves, when exposed to enzymes.

If the unripe peppers are quickly dried over high heat over a fire, marinated in brine or dried, the fermentation process stops and the peppers remain green. Green peppers are less spicy and more aromatic.

Ripe red peppers cannot be dried like black because they are high in sugar. However, after soaking for several days in water, the top layer of fruit is mechanically peeled off and the rest is dried. Thus, white pepper does not consist entirely of fruit, but only of seed (nucleolus), creamy white in color, very pungent and less aromatic than black.
