Bembo White Pepper with Grinder

White pepper is obtained from the processing of the fruits of Piper nigrum , a plant belonging to the Piperaceae family. For the production of white pepper, the Piper nigrum berries are picked almost ripe (when they appear large and reddish) and are macerated in water to cause the external casing to detach. The cleaned grains are subsequently dried and at the end of processing they are smaller than those of black pepper and with a much more delicate flavour. The beneficial properties of white pepper derive from the presence of piperine and are completely similar to those of black and green pepper.

In the Kitchen : The flavor of white pepper is lighter and sweeter than black pepper. Its grains are smaller, more fragrant and less spicy, which is why it goes perfectly with fish-based dishes (very good in first courses with seafood) or white meats. It is also used to flavor sauces, boiled potatoes and pickles. Due to its sweet and subtle aroma it also lends itself well to original combinations, for example with fruit to create a fresh strawberry dessert or with tofu .

Ingredients : 4 varieties of white pepper from Indonesia, Brazil, Vietnam and Sarawak.

Features and Structure : the grinder is 21 cm high and has a transparent thermoset polymer structure. Made up of 2 pieces: the body and the head, joined by a device for direct connection to the adjustable ceramic grinder. It is a very resistant pepper mill: scratch-proof, antioxidant, transparent, elegant, which does not require particular maintenance.

Adjustable : You can adjust the grain size of your pepper by unscrewing or screwing the upper knob as many times as you wish: clockwise for a finer pepper (soups, soups, salads, etc.) and anti-clockwise for a coarser grain ( BBQ, grill, steaks, boiled meat, etc.).

Rechargeable : You can recharge your Grinder infinite times. This procedure is particularly simple, just completely unscrew the upper knob and remove the cover from the body. Fill the grinder body three-quarters full and replace the lid, then closing the knob. Adjust the grain size and you are ready to use it again.
