Product Information

Organic black pepper is a spice derived from the dried berries of the Piper nigrum plant. "Organic" indicates it's cultivated and processed without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers, or genetically modified organisms (GMOs), adhering to organic farming standards. The mention of Bangalore, Karnataka, India, signifies the source of the peppercorns. Black pepper is a widely used and versatile spice, adding flavor and a touch of heat to countless dishes.

Origin: Bangalore, Karnatka, India

Product Information:

  • Appearance: Small, wrinkled, dark brown or black peppercorns, either whole or ground into a powder.
  • Forms: Available as whole peppercorns, coarsely ground (cracked pepper), or finely ground black pepper.
  • Flavor: Pungent, sharp, hot, and slightly earthy flavor.

Nutritional Benefits:

  • Piperine: The active compound responsible for black pepper's pungency and some of its health benefits. It has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
  • Vitamins and Minerals: Contains small amounts of vitamins (like Vitamin C and K) and minerals (like iron, manganese, and potassium).
  • Antioxidants: Black pepper contains antioxidants that can help protect cells from damage.
  • Bioavailability: Piperine can enhance the bioavailability of certain nutrients, meaning it can improve the body's absorption of other beneficial compounds (like curcumin in turmeric).

Storage:

  • Cool, Dry, Dark: Store in a cool, dry, and dark place away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
  • Airtight Container: An airtight container is crucial to prevent loss of flavor and aroma. Whole peppercorns retain their flavor longer than ground pepper.
  • Avoid Moisture: Keep the container dry to prevent mold or spoilage.

Shelf Life:

  • Whole peppercorns can retain their flavor for several years (3-4 years or more) when stored properly.
  • Ground black pepper loses its flavor more quickly, generally lasting for about 6-12 months.
