Black pepper is an unripe fruit harvested from a flowering vine known as Piper nigrum. Once the berries are picked, they are fermented and dried. Once the peppercorns are brown and wrinkled in appearance, they are ground. The result is a mixture of peppercorn’s light-colored core and dark skin. Pepper is the world’s most popular spice and comes in various forms ranging from whole to fine ground. Black Pepper is the spice from unripe berries and contains a sharp, pungent flavor that adds a spicy tang to any dish.
Coarse black pepper is between fine ground black pepper and cracked black pepper in terms of robustness. It has a medium heat and works well as a table seasoning or meat rub.
