Whereas the black pepper is wholly matured berries and dryed and finally the white pepper are dried seeds after removing the pericarp of the berries.

Green pepper are the least ripe, the most immature form of the berry.

All pepper trees are organic and not genetically modified or irradicated plants. Used as part of the steak seasoning or in dishes such as stews and are superb for crusting a steak before it is grilled or broiled.

It can be used in vinaigrettes, mayonnaise or any sauce that requires peppers. Peppercorn is a wonderful spice and can be used in many versatile form.
