Mrs Rogers Black Peppercorns are selected for their full-bodied, bold pungent flavour & aroma. Pepper is the most popular spice for its unique ability to lift and transform your dish to another level. The king of spices, with a deep history and once traded as a currency.
Suggested Uses
Black Pepper adds spicy heat and bold flavour to enhance any savoury dish. It is the most popular spice and is used as a seasoning worldwide. To maintain the delicate flavours, we recommend grinding and adding pepper just before serving or as a garnish. Its spicy, complex flavour lends itself to most savoury dishes and can enhance sweet dishes as well; try grinding over fresh sliced strawberries!
The Variety
The cured, unripe berries of a flowering tropical vine, Piper nigrum, native to South India and widely cultivated throughout the tropics. They are steam sterilised, which is a natural method of eliminating bugs & controlling microbial activity etc., rather than gas or irradiation.
For Your Appreciation
Mrs Rogers have specially selected these black peppercorns for their distinctly bold flavour and aroma. They contain no additives or preservatives and are steam-treated as a more natural alternative to irradiation or gas treatment.
Health Benefits
Black Pepper has antibacterial properties, which aids in the preservation of foods. In Ayurvedic medicine, pepper is added to tonics for colds and coughs. It aids the absorption of Curcumin, an antioxidant, digestive, anti-inflammatory, antiplatelet (decreases clotting), cholesterol-lowering and anti-carcinogenic, found in Turmeric. Piperine, a compound in peppercorns that gives it its spiciness, enhances bioavailability helping in transporting benefits from other herbs, spices and healthy foods we consume.
For your convenience
A bulk option for your favourite seasonings. The convenient ziplock bag keeps the product fresh and the box pouch is tidy in your pantry. For easy pouring, make a V shape in the front of the bag rather than trying to pour from the side of the bag.
