Words from Terre Exotique

Penja white pepper is the star of peppers to have at hand for all your dishes, including the most sophisticated recipes. Perfect with foie gras, chocolate and even some cheeses, there are plenty of occasions to use this delicious pepper!

This white pepper has delicious supple and musky aromas due to the rich fertile soils of Cameroon. Its initial attack is hot and spicy, with longer animal and herby notes, especially when cracked rather than ground. It’s a complex but well-balanced pepper, the perfect companion for red meat or braised game.
