White Pepper

White pepper – Because of its white color, white pepper is ideal for use in white sauces, pasta salads and seafood dishes. White pepper retains the full pungency of black pepper, but has an altered flavour due to partial loss of aroma compounds.
White pepper starts out the same as the black, but is allowed to ripen more fully on the vine, while black pepper is made from green berries. White pepper is most often used in white or light-coloured dishes and sauces so there won’t be any black flecks. It is a little bit hot, a little bit winey and a great deal earthy.
