What is Black Pepper?
Black Pepper is the dried unripe fruit of the Piper nigrum plant, prized for its sharp flavor and pungent aroma. Known globally as the “King of Spices,” black pepper is one of the most traded spices in the world. It is essential in culinary use, medicinal applications, and food processing.
