Peppercorn Whole - White

Other than salt, pepper is one of the oldest and most used spices in the world. White peppercorns come from the same plant as black, but the thin skin of fruit is removed from the seed (the wrinkled skin that you see on black peppercorns). This is usually done by soaking the pepper or placing in running water until the layer is removed. With a sharp, straight flavor, it is commonly used in cream sauces or other applications where flecks of black pepper are not desired.
