Black Peper

Black Pepper is a finely ground form of peppercorns, typically black or white pepper, and is one of the most commonly used spices in kitchens worldwide. Black pepper powder is made from dried and ground black peppercorns, which have a sharp, spicy, and slightly earthy flavor. It adds heat and depth to a variety of dishes, including soups, sauces, meats, and vegetables.

White pepper powder, made from ground, skinless ripe peppercorns, has a milder, more delicate taste compared to black pepper. It’s often used in light-colored dishes like cream sauces, soups, or mashed potatoes, where a more subtle flavor is preferred.

Pepper powder enhances the natural taste of ingredients, making it a staple in seasoning blends and a key element in cooking across different cuisines. Its aromatic, slightly fiery profile balances well with other spices, bringing warmth and complexity to dishes.
