Long pepper has a delicate floral aroma with a slight kick, particularly when cooked for a long time. Long pepper tastes like black, green and white pepper, but is more pungent. Due to their complexity, long peppercorns pair well with dishes that have distinctive, nuanced flavours, such as spring favourites like artichokes, asparagus and mushrooms. They are best prepared simply with freshly ground long pepper, added to the dish at the very end to preserve the flavour. Use it with dark meats, vegetables, in compotes, desserts and as an accompaniment to fruit. It’s best to simply crush it so that the pepper’s intensity can add flavour to curries, particularly in vegetarian dishes and slow-cooked meals. Country of origin: Indonesia 45g jar

Kampot pepper is one of the finest peppers in the world. The humid and hot climate of the Thai coast, combined with the heavy clay soil, gives this pepper its exceptional qualities. Kampot pepper is grown traditionally, without the use of artificial fertilisers or pesticides. All Kampot peppers come from the same plant; their colour is determined by their degree of ripeness and the stage of processing. Only fully ripe berries are used to produce white Kampot pepper. After harvesting, the berries are soaked in water for several days until the skin dissolves. The beige-white grains are then dried in the sun. This pepper has a fresh and aromatic scent. We recommend using White Kampot pepper to season poultry, fish, vegetables, light sauces and soups. Country of origin: Cambodia 60g jar
