KSh500.00
Black peppercorns are the dried, unripe fruits of the Piper nigrum plant, a flowering woody vine native to South and Southeast Asia. Black peppercorns offer unparalleled aroma, heat, and complex, woody notes. Unlike pre-ground pepper, these peppercorns retain their volatile oils until the moment you grind them, ensuring a superior dining experience.
Ideal for high-end cooking, these Black peppercorns are the standard used by chefs worldwide. It is excellent for fresh grinding over steak, fresh salads, pasta, or as a foundational spice for soups and stews.
