Product description Black pepper comes from a climbing vine native to China and India that is also cultivated in other tropical regions. Many people are aware of the pungent flavor pepper lends to foods, but are surprised to learn that it is also nutritious. A mere 2 teaspoon serving provides about 12% of the daily recommended value of manganese, roughly 8.6% vitamin K and 6.7% iron. Black pepper What most people in the west call “pepper” doesn’t come from a pepper plant at all but from a flowering vine. The term is an adaptation of pippali, a Malayalam word that originally referred to the fruits of a plant in the same family commonly known as Indian long pepper. To add to the confusion, people began to erroneously apply the word “pepper” to the hot chili pepper of the Capsicum genus discovered in the New World in the 1700s. Although mistakenly mixing species in this manner may have upset the botanical purists of the time, the error led to an interesting etymological development in this case. Because of the fiery attributes of either spice called “pepper,” the word became synonymous with “high spirited” and was used to describe someone who was considered robust and energetic. This is how we arrived at the modern word “peppy,” later abbreviated to simply “pep.” PREMIUM QUALITY GROUND 16 mesh grind offers a medium coarseness, ideal for a balanced, aromatic finish in your culinary creations.
