Black pepper, known as the “king of spices”, has a long culinary tradition, originating in India.
Black pepper, valued for both its pungency and depth of flavour, contains piperine, which not only adds spiciness but also several health benefits.
It improves the absorption of nutrients, especially selenium, B vitamins, beta-carotene and other nutrients, aids digestion by stimulating stomach acid production, and has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
In addition, it is thought that it may contribute to weight loss by improving metabolism. Black pepper is incredibly versatile in the kitchen, used freshly ground as a seasoning for a variety of dishes, from salads and soups to pasta and other dishes. Its ability to add heat and flavour to dishes makes it an indispensable ingredient in almost all cuisines around the world.
Organically grown black pepper has a rich, spicy flavour.
Suitable for sauces, garnishes, stews, marinades and mixing with other spices.
