Mild, aromatic and pleasantly spicy black peppercorns

Black pepper is the name given to a spice made from the semi-ripe fruit of the pepper plant. Green and white pepper are also made from the same plant. The difference lies in the fact that white pepper means dried ripe peppercorns, green pepper means dried unripe peppercorns and black pepper means cooked and roasted unripe peppercorns.

The fruit is dried in the sun. Peppercorns can also be dried in a dehydrating machine. Those fruits which are to be used to obtain black peppercorns are dehusked before drying. Dehydration cleans the fruit, breaks up the cell shells in the fruit and speeds up the browning enzymes during drying. During the drying process, the fruit contracts around the seed and darkens into a thin, wrinkled black layer.

Black pepper enriches flavours and adds spice

Black pepper is used to add spiciness to dishes and to bring out and enhance the flavour of foods. Black pepper can be used, for example, if you want to reduce the amount of salt in your menu but still want to enrich and enhance the flavour and aroma of your food.

Black pepper can be added to almost any dish, even desserts. It is well suited for flavouring sauces, soups, stews, vegetable dishes, meat and fish dishes, marinades, salads and other dishes, either during cooking or right before serving.

Pepper came to Europe from India over 2000 years ago. Black pepper is the world’s most traded spice, and is one of the most common spices added to cuisines around the world.

Biomenu’s Black Peppercorn does not hold back in quality

Biomenu’s Black Peppercorn comes from Vietnam, where it is organically grown and processed. Whole peppercorns have not been ground so that peppercorns could retain the freshest flavour and aroma. Biomenu’s Black Pepper will bring joy to anyone who likes to use pepper regularly in their kitchen.

Ingredients: 100% black peppercorn
Country of origin: Vietnam, certified organic.
Storage: Store in a dry and cool place. Keep out of direct sunlight

Using whole peppercorns is better than using ground pepper for a number of reasons, especially in terms of taste and quality:

1. Stronger flavour

The aroma and flavour of black pepper is much more intense when freshly ground. Ground pepper loses its aroma and flavour over time as the essential oils are evaporating.
Freshly ground pepper gives dishes a deeper, fuller flavour.

2. Longer lasting

Pepper retains its properties for much longer because its protective bark keeps the essential oils inside the peppercorns.
Ground pepper will quickly lose its flavour and aroma, especially if it is stored for a long time in an open or transparent container.

3. Variety of use

You can control the coarseness of the grind as needed – finer for sauces, coarser for grilled dishes or marinades.
Allows whole grains to be used in certain dishes such as broths, stews or marinades without overpowering them.

4. No additives

Whole peppercorns are cleaner because there is no risk of additives or cheaper blends being added during the milling process.
Ground pepper may sometimes contain impurities that are not always disclosed on the package.

5. An aromatic experience

Freshly ground pepper releases aromatic oils that make cooking and eating even more pleasant.
Particularly important for gourmets and those who appreciate an authentic taste experience.

6. Aesthetics

Freshly ground pepper looks more attractive and natural, especially when used to garnish foods.

We have used black pepper in recipes to add spiciness to various dishes, such as Roasted cauliflower soup and Asian-style soy-free soup.

All in all, this is the perfect variety of pepper for anyone who appreciates quality, taste and aroma. If you are a frequent user of black pepper, it’s not a bad idea to invest in a pepper mill and start grounding your own whole peppercorns!

Attention. Black pepper is not a health product and is not recommended for using as a food supplement. If you suffer from very sensitive digestion, black pepper should be avoided.
