Peppercorns
PEPPERCORNS, GREEN, GROUND
Description:
Peppercorns (Piper Nigrum) are one of the most commonly used spices; in fact, Peppercorn accounts for 1/4 of all of the global spice trade. The first documentation of Peppercorn use is found in South Asia from the 4th Century BC. Green Peppercorns are the berry of the plant Piper Nigrum and are harvested before they reach maturity. The flavor of Green Peppercorns is milder than the Black Peppercorns and slightly sweet. Sun dried Green Peppercorns are referred to as Black Peppercorns.
Suggested Use:
Add Green Peppercorns crushed to sauces and salad dressings. Use them ground in recipes where you desire a lighter pepper note.
