Pepper
Pepper is a popular spice that comes from the dried berries of the pepper plant. These berries are harvested and processed to create the familiar seasoning that adds flavour to many dishes. Pepper is commonly used in cooking to enhance the taste of savoury and even some sweet foods.
To make pepper, the berries are picked when they are still green and unripe. These berries are then dried either in the sun or using special machinery. Once dried, the outer layer of the berries is removed to reveal the peppercorns inside. These peppercorns are then ground into the fine powder that we commonly see and use in our kitchens.
Pepper appears on food labels because it is a popular spice that adds a distinctive taste to dishes. It is widely used in savoury foods like soups, stews, casseroles, and meat dishes. Pepper can also be found in salad dressings, marinades, and even in some desserts like fruit salads. Its zesty and slightly spicy flavour can enhance the overall taste of a wide range of foods, making it a staple in kitchens around the world.
