Black pepper comes from a climbing plant in the pepper family (Piperaceae), which can grow up to 15 metres in length. From a single vine, farmers obtain black, white and green pepper, depending on the stage of fruit maturity. It is one of the most popular spices in the world, found in almost every kitchen.
Most of us use black pepper every day – its sharp, spicy flavour adds heat and depth to dishes. It is also worth knowing that piperine, the main active compound in black pepper, offers valuable health-supporting properties.
Black pepper is known for its strong antioxidant properties due to its naturally high piperine content. It also shows antimicrobial activity, stimulates the secretion of digestive juices and has a relaxing effect on the digestive tract. In combination with curcumin it can further enhance antioxidant activity and may be helpful as support in rheumatoid arthritis. Piperine is also being studied for its potential neuroprotective effects, for example in slowing down processes linked to neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s.
Thanks to its versatility, black pepper can be added to almost any savoury dish. Heavier meals seasoned generously with pepper may help reduce feelings of indigestion afterwards. Although we mainly associate black pepper with soups, meats or sauces, it is also used in some desserts and cocktails. One thing is certain – pepper remains an essential part of cuisines all over the world and still feels absolutely irreplaceable.
