True white Kampot pepper and the most common questions about its origin

Champagne among peppers, which has nothing in common with the white pepper you know. We still remember how the best Czech chefs reacted to it: "Don’t bring me white pepper here, it always smells bad." And in the end, most of them tried white pepper and now use it most gladly. Why? Because true white pepper perfectly and gently underlines every dish without being overly aromatic.

What is the difference between white pepper from the store and our white pepper

Classic white peppers in stores are peeled from unripe black pepper and tend to become musty, which is why no one likes them. True white pepper, however, is peeled from ripe red pepper and thanks to that acquires qualities sought after by the best world chefs – it gently opens the taste buds and multiplies the flavors in the dish! The stripes on white Kampot pepper also indicate that each peppercorn is peeled by hand, not by machine, preserving the maximum of its nutrients and flavors.

Creamy white balls are the opposite of aromatic red pepper – a delicate creamy scent with tones of cedarwood and citrus subtly sneaks into the food. At first, you don’t taste anything, but then all the flavors play to the maximum in your mouth and even the simplest dish becomes a gourmet experience.
