Have you ever used white pepper in your food?!


Question: Have you ever used white pepper in your food!?
Answers:
All the time!. In culinary school I probably used it every day!. Any time I would make any kind of white sauce or creamy dishes!. No one wants to see little black flecks in a perfectly done white sauce!. :)

European cooks particularly favor white pepper for soups and sauces and prefer it as a table condiment!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

White pepper is a lot stronger and you use less than regular pepper!.

Black and white pepper both come from the same plant, but, as with red and green peppers, the final color has to do with their ripeness!. Peppercorns are the berries of the pepper plant (piper nigrum), which is native to Southern Asia!. You might be interested to know that the primary spice that Europe's explorers were seeking when they accidentally found the New World on their "shortcut" to Asia was pepper!. It still accounts for a quarter of the world's spice trade!.

A black peppercorn is picked when still green and dried in the sun until it turns black!. A white peppercorn ripens fully on the vine before it is picked!. Black pepper has a slightly hotter flavor and aroma!. As with any spice, if you grind the pepper as you use it, it will have lots more flavor than if it was ground in a factory months ago and sat on the shelves in the grocery store before it sat on your shelf!. So the question of how much to use is very much a matter of personal preference!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I have a mixture of white and black peppercorns in my peppermill!.

White pepper can be aged and cleaned in rivers which is what gives it its musty flavor and smell!. White peppers are not riper they are just cleaned and dried differently than black pepper!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
