Green Peppercorns - Organic - Steenbergs - Glass Jar

Product - Organic Green Peppercorns from Sri Lanka - 39 grams of high quality Organic Green Peppercorns

Product Information - Green peppercorns are fully-sized corns that have yet to ripen and are closest in flavour to picking green berries straight from the vine. To prevent them from turning dark brown, the berries must be processed to deactivate the enzyme that turns the fruit black. This is traditionally done by putting them into brine or (as in our case) plunging them into boiling water for 15 minutes prior to drying in the sun. They have a dark olive green colour and a wrinkled appearance similar to black peppercorns but full of that characteristic green pepper flavour.
Green peppercorns have a light aroma and a young, fresh pungency with plenty of bite.
