Terre Exotique Red Dak Lak Pepper 250g

Product Description

Dak Lak Red Pepper comes from the pepper plant, belonging to the Piper genus and the nigrum species. Originally from India, it was introduced to Vietnam in the 17th century by the French. Initially cultivated in regions such as Phu Quoc, Hon Chong, and Ha Tien during the 19th century, it gradually spread to other parts of the country, particularly in the Central and Southeast of Nam Bo in the early 20th century.

Today, the pepper plant is extensively grown in Vietnam, with notable production in the Dak Lak province. Situated on high plateaus at an altitude of 600 meters, Dak Lak offers ideal climatic and geographical conditions for cultivating red pepper. In addition to Dak Lak, five other Vietnamese provinces, namely Binh Phuoc, Dak Nong, Ba Ria-Vung Tau, Dong Nai, and Gia Lai, also contribute to the production of this high-quality pepper.

The production of Dak Lak Red Pepper involves meticulous manual processes, including harvesting, sorting, and drying. The pepper berries are harvested when they turn a vibrant red color and reach full maturity. Experienced cultivators carefully select the berries after harvesting, separating them from the clusters and discarding those that do not meet the quality criteria. The pepper is then sun-dried while preserving its pericarp, which gives it its distinctive characteristics.

Dak Lak Red Pepper stands out with its unique aromatic profile. In terms of taste, it reveals balsamic, fruity, and smoky notes that awaken the taste buds. Its lively and slightly spicy character pairs wonderfully with white meats and seafood, adding an unmatched flavor dimension to these dishes.

Dak Lak Red Pepper is an ingredient that brings exoticism and intense flavors to many dishes. Here are some examples of its uses:
