Green pepper

Green pepper is obtained from the unripe fruit of piper nigrum plant. Its berries are immediately dried or stored in an acidic brine: this makes green pepper even more aromatic and softer. Its anti-fermentative properties help the long-term storage of different types of foods, including meat, fish, cheese. It is used to flavor fish and meat (chicken, turkey, pork, beef). Filet with green pepper is a well-known recipe. Dehydrated green pepper, beans and ground, green pepper in brine is also available.
