About White pepper

White pepper, derived from the dried seeds of ripe pepper berries, is a staple spice in global cuisines, particularly in Chinese, Thai, and French cooking. Unlike black pepper, it is produced after soaking and removing the outer skin, giving it a milder, earthy flavor. Nutritionally, white pepper contains essential vitamins and minerals such as vitamin C, K, calcium, and iron. It is also rich in antioxidants that help combat free radicals, supporting overall health. Known for its ability to stimulate digestion, white pepper’s active compound, piperine, may enhance nutrient absorption and boost metabolism. However, excessive consumption could irritate the digestive tract or exacerbate issues for individuals sensitive to spicy foods. Its versatility makes it perfect for creamy soups, sauces, and marinades, adding subtle heat without overpowering dishes. Incorporating white pepper into recipes provides flavor while offering modest health benefits when used in moderation.
