Cracked black pepper

It is in southern India that we find the first traces of pepper. Black pepper is what is called in botany, a Piper nigrum. It is the fruit of a climbing vine of the Piperaceae family. It grows on a tree with both rough and cracked bark, which makes it easier to climb. It can reach up to four meters in height. Piper nigrum requires a tropical climate with high heat and humidity as well as alternating shade/light to develop well. Post-harvesting manipulations give the pepper its final color and flavors. Black pepper is harvested at optimum ripeness. The drying of the peppercorn transforms this orange and smooth fruit into a wrinkled grain with brown hues. Discover cracked black pepper, ideal for daily use. To try absolutely with a duck breast, a salmon steak or a piece of grilled beef!
