 White Pepper vs Black Pepper

White pepper comes from the same plant as black pepper. The difference is how they are picked and processed. The white peppercorns are picked at a peak ripeness, then soaked in water and then had the outer peppercorn layer removed.

The black peppercorn are the unripe berries from the same pepper plant, harvested, dried which causes the outer skin to blacken.

Black pepper gives off a more spicy heat because of the piperine, white pepper on the other hand has a more earthy and musty flavor. Black pepper and white pepper have been found to promote good gut health and speed up digestion.
