Whole White Peppercorns (New Crop) - Top Quality - 1kg
White pepper is known for its sharp bite and is used to add extra flavour to Chinese soups, marinades for meat and poultry, and spicier stir-frys.
Its also used in white sauces and dishes such as potatoes where the colour of black pepper would detract from the appearance of the dish.
Like black pepper, white pepper comes from the dried fruit of the pepper plant, piper nigrum.
White pepper is described as being spicier and fruitier than black pepper, but less complex. Some say it has a musty or earthy flavour others say slightly smoky. Its best to only swap one for the other in small amounts in a recipe if you need to make a substitution.
White pepper should be added after the dish has been cooked, as overheating can release a bitter flavour.
