White pepper powder

White pepper powder is a culinary spice that comes from the same plant as black pepper. The difference between the two is in the harvesting and processing methods, which leads to a different flavor profile than black pepper. White pepper powder is characterised by a slight earthy flavor, medium mild heat and an almost fermented flavor which blends well into dishes where you need pepper flavor that is more direct but less lingering. White pepper is processed by removing the outer cover of the ripe peppercorn, (the outer cover gives black pepper its characteristic earthy and slightly floral aroma), making White pepper powder less sharp and delivering a cleaner, aromatic pepper flavor.
