Black Peppercorns

Description

Black peppercorns are a flowering vine in the family Piperaceae, cultivated for its fruit, which is usually dried and used as a spice and seasoning. The fruit is a drupe which is about 5 mm in diameter, dark red, and contains a stone which encloses a single pepper seed.

Ground black pepper or whole black peppercorns in a jar with a grinder are common in grocery stores, markets, and online. Use black pepper as an ingredient in recipes to add flavor and spice to meats, fish, vegetables, salad dressings, soups, stir-fries, pasta, and more.

Description:

This spice is obtained from the dried berry of the pepper vine, and its rich, dark color will add to the appearance of your signature dishes. Whole black peppercorns are best suited for marinades, seasoning hearty meats, or making rich and creamy salad dressings. The perfect complement to salt, these whole black peppercorns add a pinch of robust taste to any dish you make.

Usage:

Historically, black pepper is one of the most valuable spices that was ever traded. Peppercorns were often used as commodity money in place of actual coins. So precious and expensive were they that in ancient Rome, you could have a rival killed for a mere handful of them.

Piperine Nigerum fights arthritis since it has anti-inflammatory effects. It enhances circulation and lessens discomfort and swelling in the joints between the fingers. Pepper also aids in the prevention of conditions including diabetes, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease.

Black pepper usually upsets the stomach. You might experience heartburn or indigestion if you overdo it. Pepper-containing products cause stomach irritation and gastrointestinal side effects comparable to those caused by aspirin.

To maintain freshness, this spice is shipped in glass bottles. That’s because glass jars can preserve the freshness of spices for up to 2 years. Glass is an awesome option for storing spices because it doesn’t react to ingredients, unlike plastics and wood. Glass doesn’t typically conduct heat and you can see what’s inside to keep track of inventory.
