SMOKED BLACK PEPPER VIETNAM

Black pepper is known as "the king of spices" as it is the most commonly used spice in the world. Vietnam is the largest producer of pepper and is recognized for its exceptional quality. Smoked black pepper is unique! It is used as a spice in cuisines around the world, enhancing the flavor of dishes due to the presence of piperine.

The black peppercorns from Vietnam are smoked with coconut wood, ground, and are ready to elevate flavors! The hints of citrus and wood also add to the allure of smoked black pepper. The smoked ground pepper can be used in stews, soups, broths, and pickles.

It is best to add the pepper towards the end of cooking, as it loses its flavor the longer it cooks. Smoked black pepper is also an ideal substitute for salt, as its vibrant flavor is not overpowering but subtle with notes of smoky wood.
