Types of Pepper & Production Differences
Sarawak peppercorns – green, black, and white – all come from the same plant. However, their appearance and taste vary depending on the harvest time and processing method:
- Green Pepper: Harvested unripe, soaked in water, and then dried. They are milder and less spicy than black pepper.
- Black Pepper: Also harvested unripe, but slightly later than green pepper. After harvest, it ferments overnight, turning black, which enhances its characteristic sharpness.
- White Pepper: More labor-intensive to process. The harvest time is later, and the peppercorns are soaked to remove the outer skin, leaving only the mild inner seed, which has a musky flavor.
The pink peppercorns in this blend come from Brazil and add a fruity, floral element that sets this mixture apart from others.
