Words from Terre Exotique

Originating from Nepal, this Timur berry is harvested from small trees endemic to the Zanthoxylum armatum species of the Rutaceae family. It grows wild in the Mahabharat range between the Terai and the Pahar, at an altitude of over 2000 meters. Terai is the place where Buddha was born. There, Tharu villages are known for their earthen houses with thatched roofs. Timur berry is an essential spice among the populations of Terai in southern Nepal.

Once the annual harvest is complete, Timur berries are dried and then sorted by hand. On average, women sort about 5 kg of berries per day. Using large woven trays, sorting takes place in 3 distinct steps: removing branches and other foreign elements, separating black seeds from the pericarp, and finally, selecting the most mature berries according to their color.

The nickname of Timur berry is "grapefruit pepper" referring to its tangy notes, but you can also find it under the name "Timut pepper".

When used in your cooking, whether cracked or infused, it can add a zesty kick to seafood dishes, as well as enhance the flavors of chocolate and fruit-based desserts.

Aromas : Balsamic, floral, fruity (grapefruit)
