White pepper

White pepper is a popular food ingredient that comes from the same plant as black pepper, but with key differences in processing. White pepper is made from ripe pepper berries that have their outer layer removed, leaving behind the inner seed. This process gives white pepper a milder flavour compared to black pepper.

The production of white pepper involves soaking the ripe pepper berries in water to soften the outer layer which is then removed through a process of rubbing or mechanical stripping. The inner seed is then dried, resulting in the white peppercorns that are commonly used in cooking and seasoning a variety of dishes.

White pepper is often included in food products for its subtle spicy taste. It adds a mild heat and depth of flavour to dishes such as soups, sauces, marinades, and seasoning blends. It is also commonly used in recipes where the appearance of black specks (from black pepper) is undesirable, such as in white sauces, mashed potatoes, and light-coloured soups.
