Kockens Svartpeppar Malen Burk - Black Pepper 255g

The true pepper, Piper nigrum, belongs to the diverse Piperaceae family. Black, white, and green pepper all come from this plant. It is a perennial climbing vine that can grow up to 10 meters long. Its flowers are small, ranging from white to green, and its fruit is a single-seed drupe. During harvest, the entire fruit clusters are hand-picked six to eight times per season at intervals of about two weeks.

Black pepper is obtained by picking the green, unripe fruits. They are then fermented and dried in the sun, turning dark brown to black. Black pepper can be used both whole and ground, with the best flavor achieved by grinding it fresh in a pepper mill. It is one of the most commonly used spices in European cuisine and is suitable for all types of cooking and as a table spice.

Kockens strives to contribute to a better world for people and nature. Therefore, we responsibly source this black pepper by only purchasing from Rainforest Alliance-certified growers. Learn more at www.rainforest-alliance.org.
