Product Description
Since Terre Exotique brought this Bahia black pepper back to France on their sailing ship, via the EOLE programme it has become one of the star peppers! These large peppercorns release powerful aromas of camphor with a hint of resin almost like local pine trees. Sprinkle over meat or even on strawberries – what a distinctive pepper!
After the initial herbaceous scent, Bahia black pepper releases woody flavours of aniseed with notes of plants and resin. A complex and distinctive pepper.
Bahia black pepper is a Piper nigrum creeper which uses trees as stakes to grow in the warm and tropical climate of Salvador de Bahia in Brazil. Bahia black pepper, also called Belem pepper or Brazilian black pepper, grows in an idyllic setting in the Centre-East of Brazil facing the ocean in sandy soils, where it is watered by a drip irrigation system ensuring it gets the perfect amount of water and nutrients. Bahia black pepper is harvested in the summer, then each grain is separated from the drupe and dried, sheltered from the rain. Bahia black pepper is a large grain pepper with a delicious aroma.
Usage Suggestions:
Crack it roughly with your pestle and mortar and sprinkle over duck breast, salmon steak or grilled beef.
