Bahia white pepper is incredibly versatile and can be used in a variety of dishes to add a touch of sophistication. It’s particularly suited for creamy sauces, white meats, and seafood. You can add it at the end of cooking to preserve its delicate aromas or freshly grind it to season your dishes just before serving.
Bahia white pepper offers a mild and slightly spicy flavor with delicate woody and citrus aromas. On the palate, it reveals a subtle heat that doesn't overpower other flavors but enhances them.
Bahia white pepper is grown in the Bahia region of Brazil, where the climate is ideal for pepper production. The pepper berries are harvested when ripe, then the skins are removed, and the seeds are dried to achieve their characteristic white color. This traditional production process ensures a high-quality spice that respects artisanal methods.
Pepper cultivation was introduced to Brazil in the 17th century in the Bahia region. It wasn’t until the 1930s that pepper began to be seriously cultivated and exported to Europe and North America. Today, the three main harvesting areas are Pará, Bahia, and Espírito Santo. Harvests take place from July to October.
