GROUND BLACK PEPPER

Black pepper is the fruit of the Piper Nigrum plant, native to tropical Asia.

Black pepper has always been the king of spices: just consider that at the time of ancient Rome the treasure of the Empire was calculated in bags of pepper and that it dominated European trade during the Middle Ages and was the main stimulus that pushed looking for new routes to the East.
It is no exaggeration to say that pepper has changed the course of history.
Quality pepper is expensive, and the finest type, with a strong aroma and a large grain, comes from the Tellicherry region of India and is named after it.

Ideal to grind or to use whole to flavor and decorate dishes.
