Pepper is the first cultivated commodity in Aceh. This pepper was originally  introduced by merchants from Malabar, India in the late 13th and early 14th centuries. Pepper was then cultivated by the Acehnese and became the first commodity in the Kingdom of Aceh Darussalam. This commodity is one of reasons that cause Portuguese want to colonize Aceh.
After Malacca fell into Portuguese hand, Portuguese successfully send pepper to Lisbon via Cape Town in South Africa. Aceh managed to send spices to Jeddah, via the Mediterranean Sea as well as to Europe, between 40 thousand to 50 thousand quintals per year. Acehnese traders were even able to supply pepper to various countries in Europe.
Pepper is a traditional commodity that has been known since a long time and cultivated in Indonesia. Pepper is a fruit cultivated from a plant called Pepper nigra in Latin. Pepper fruit is small round, and about 1-2 millimeters in diameter. Pepper fruit has a spicy, warm, and slightly bitter taste. As seasoning, pepper fruit is processed as white pepper and black pepper product.
White pepper as powder is commonly used in vegetable soups, stir-fried vegetables, steak sauces, and stews. While black pepper granules are mostly mixed in dishes such as meat with black pepper sauce.
Pepper tree is flowering vine. The vine grows up when it find a pole. If in contrary, this plant will grow creeping on the ground. The stems are small. Its length can reach 15 meters.
Pepper reproduces by seeds. However, most farmers prefer to grow pepper with stem cutting. Pepper can be harvested after 3 years. The suitable condition for harvesting is when the pepper stalk turns into slightly yellow. Meanwhile, some fruits which are already yellow or color means it is ripe.
The North Aceh District Government, Aceh, in 2015 developed 40 hectares of pepper managed by community groups in 27 sub-districts. This is become one way to restore the glory of pepper in Aceh.

White pepper (Piper nigrum) is a flowering vine in the family Piperaceae. Black and white peppercorns are both the fruit of the pepper plant, but they are processed differently. Black peppercorns are picked when almost ripe and sun-dried, turning the outer layer black. White pepper is prepared by having the outer layer removed before or after drying, leaving only the inner seed. Peppercorns are widely believed to the most commonly used culinary spice in the world. It has been used throughout history in herbal medicine and to preserve food. White pepper may aid in digestion. White pepper can assist in energy production and antioxidant defense. White pepper may improve dental health. White pepper may help skin conditions. White pepper may help with weight loss. White pepper is helpful for improving bone health.

It is created by soaking fully ripened black peppercorns in water to remove the outer black skin, revealing the inner seed with its pale color. This process results in a milder and subtler flavor compared to black pepper, making white pepper a popular choice in dishes where a less pungent and more delicate peppery taste is desired. It is widely used in a variety of cuisines, including Asian, European, and American, to season soups, sauces, seafood, and light-colored dishes, where the dark specks of black pepper might be visually undesirable. White pepper is appreciated for its ability to add a gentle heat and depth of flavor to foods without overpowering their overall taste.
