Pepper is a fruiting vine in the family Piperaceae and is native to the Malabar region of southern India. When the fruit is fully mature, it is approximately 2/10" in diameter, dark red, and contains a single seed. Black, green, and white peppercorns are all products of the same vine, harvested and processed at different points in its maturity to create these varieties. You can browse the different peppercorns on our main peppercorn page.
Organic Black Peppercorns are popular with salt, coffee, tea, and vinegar manufacturers; spice shops; and brewpubs, Mediterranean, and Mexican restaurants.
1 teaspoon of Organic Black Peppercorns = 1 ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper.
Flavor Profile
Organic Black Peppercorns produce a distinctly spicy flavor. They are slightly hot and biting with notes of pine and just a hint of sweetness.
