Bio spice black pepper whole

What does the whole black pepper go best with -you ask? Well, to be honest, the question of what it does not go with would be easier and, above all, shorter to answer. Because whether it's fish, meat, or vegetables, the peppercorn really does go with everything.

People have always used pepper as a seasoning. In over 3,000 years old Sanskrit writings from its Indian homeland, the spice was already described under the name Pippari. A name that is very reminiscent of the substance responsible for the pungency of the berries - namely piperine. In ancient Rome, where pepper was at times more valuable than gold, it was known as Piper. And if you've ever heard the derisive term "pepper sack," it was used to refer to rich and reckless people.
