Furthermore, peppercorns grow as a vine in tropical areas. It is native to South Asia. The Sri Lankan pepper has a higher piperine content.
In Sri Lanka, the major cultivation areas for pepper are Kandy, Matale, Kegalle, Badulla, Ratnapura, Monaragala, and Kurunegala. In addition, these areas have loamy soil conditions as well as a 20 oC–30 oC temperature range. It is the optimum condition for the best pepper cultivation.
buy black pepper for cooking
We make black pepper in many colors (white, green, and pinkish-red). The black color comes from the drying process. Sri Lankan black peppercorns have a strong taste. It is good for cooking and making oils. We also use pepper as a spice and flavoring in food, perfumes, and medicines.
However, Sri Lankan black pepper is special because it has a lot of piperine.
Piperine is the important part of black pepper. Sri Lanka black pepper has more piperine than other peppers. So, it is the best black pepper for your kitchen.
White pepper
The pepper plant gives us two kinds of pepper: white and black. These peppers are made from the same plant. The only difference is that we use fully ripened berries to process white pepper. Therefore, we soak it in water to ferment. After that, the outer layer is removed, revealing only the inner seed. The white pepper gives a less pungent heat. Because of the chemicals that are stripped away from the outer skin. Further, the taste of white pepper is usually milder than black pepper.
Furthermore, white pepper is best for white sauces and potato dishes. Also, both black and white pepper are available in both whole and powder forms at Acril Tea.
Essential Oil of Pepper
Black Pepper Essential Oil is steam distilled from the crushed pepper fruit. It has a strong and sharp fragrance that stimulates and energizes. Acril Spice Island guarantees black pepper oil that is aromatically superior and more effective than any other type of oil.
