White pepper comes from black pepper. Black pepper is known as the King of Spices. And this King of spices comes with another excellent culinary companion. That is white pepper. As the name rightfully suggests, white pepper comes in white and grey hues. They are similar in shape to black pepper.
1. Flavour
White pepper is different from black pepper as it lacks specific components found in the outer coat.
Unlike black pepper, white pepper has a hotter flavour. But white pepper has fewer flavour notes since the cover is absent. As a result, it makes white pepper less pungent. White pepper is renowned for its intense punch and is used to season marinades, soups, stir-fries, and chicken.
2. Shelf-life
When stored in an airtight container, black peppercorn can last a year. The ground form, on the other contrary, loses its natural taste after a few months.
The flavour of White pepper fades notably faster than black pepper. So it is since white pepper does not have its outer cover.
3. White pepper for lighter recipes
The difference between black pepper and white pepper is in appearance. If you are cooking a vibrant recipe, you may add black pepper. Black pepper complements the rich taste of the dish.
Recipes that call for earthy flavour work well with white pepper. This quality comes in handy while cooking. In addition, white pepper can help keep the dishâ??s appeal thanks to its subtle flavouring.
