White Pepper

  • Pepper berries (scientific name Piper nigrum L.) undergo removal of pericarp, resulting in dry seeds known as white pepper. This supplement has a milder taste than black pepper and is a coveted seasoning for food preparation.

  • The pepper berries are a tropical plant found in subtropical and tropical regions, including India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Africa, and Brazil. The white pepper can be used to make oleoresin, piperine, and essential oils.
