Organic White Pepper

Origin of White Pepper

White pepper is cultivated in Kerala in India, Indonesia, Malaysia, China and Brazil. In order to grow white pepper, sufficient fresh running water must be available. Indonesia is the largest producer of white pepper and the pepper from the island of Bangka is considered the finest.

Extraction process of White Pepper

White pepper is obtained from ripe orange to reddish pepper fruits. The outer skin and pulp of the pepper berries are removed by soaking the freshly harvested pepper berries in burlap bags in slow running water for about 8 to 10 days. This dissolves the pulp and the skin can then be easily removed mechanically. The beige bell pepper cores that remain are then dried in the sun and thus further bleached.

The Use of White Pepper in the Kitchen

White pepper is less aromatic than black pepper, but very sharp and should be used in moderation. It goes well with fish, light poultry, vegetables, rice and noodles, as well as all light sauces and soups.
