Product Description
When it comes to pepper, it's worth talking about it solely as the king of spices. It is the most widespread seasoning in the world, having become an essential element of almost every nation's gastronomy. In ancient and medieval times, its price matched that of gold and it was considered just as widely accepted as a form of currency. Empires competed for possession and trade of it, and essentially this spice was the catalyst for great discoveries.
Its spicy aroma enhances the flavor of dishes, but it is advisable to use it carefully due to its effect on the digestive system. It can be used both ground and whole.
Whole peppercorns stored in an airtight container will retain their flavor for almost an indefinite period of time.
Black pepper, white pepper, and green pepper are the fruits of the same plant, harvested at different stages of ripeness and processed differently.
Black Pepper: the unripe berries are harvested and then dried, giving them their wrinkled surface and black color. Black pepper has the strongest aroma.
Verwendung: Sie passt praktisch zu jeder Art von Gericht, von Suppen über Fleisch- und Fischgerichte bis hin zu Backwaren. Wer empfindlich auf Pfeffer reagiert oder eine Diät einhält, kann es mit Bohnenkraut ersetzen.
