Bout-A-BeanFour Peppercorn Blend!!!
Just like green tea, all
peppercorns
come from the same plant, in this case
Piper nigrum
.
Although it may take several years for this flowering vine to produce berries, or
peppercorns
,
it usually continues to do so for several decades.
Peppercorns
vary in color because they are harvested and/or processed differently.
Green Peppercorns for instance, are picked when slightly under-ripe,
red peppercorns
are harvested just as they reach maturity on the vine and Black Peppercorns get their color from
basking in the sun for several days. However, when blending
mixed peppercorn
spice,
Pink Peppercorns (Schinus terebinthifolius)
is used for color versus the ripened red
Piper nigrum
.
Whole peppercorns can cause allergic reactions in people with nut allergies.
