Harvesting

Organic Green Peppercorns are typically harvested from the Piper nigrum vine - the same plant as the black peppercorn, but they are processed and harvested at different stages of maturity, leading to variations in flavour, aroma, and appearance. They're native to India and cultivated in various tropical regions around the world. The green peppercorns are picked before they reach full maturity, usually in the early stages of growth when they are still green and have a mild, fresh flavour. This typically occurs in the late spring and early summer months. The peppercorns are then processed through various methods such as freeze-drying or air-drying to preserve their natural green colour and pungent flavour. As a raw product, green peppercorns contain essential oils, antioxidants, and a moderate amount of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin K, iron, and manganese. These nutrients contribute to the peppercorns' potential health benefits.

Organic green peppercorns are often used in cooking and are known for their slightly fruity and floral notes, making them a popular choice for adding subtle heat and flavour to a wide range of dishes.

The organic nature of Organic Green Peppercorns means that it is grown and harvested without the use of synthetic pesticides or fertilisers, preserving its natural composition.

Best Before

We believe in mindful consumption and want to share some insights on best before dates, especially when it comes to our dried foods. Best before dates indicate peak freshness and quality, not safety. Dried foods, such as grains and legumes, can often be safe and nutritious beyond their best before dates. They may lose a bit of their peak quality, but they remain a valuable and sustainable food source.

We encourage you to trust your senses. If stored properly and free from moisture, dried foods can maintain their safety and flavour for an extended period beyond the best before date. Embrace a less wasteful approach by exploring and using these ingredients even if they've passed their best before dates. Together, let's reduce food waste and maximise the full potential of every pantry staple.

Explore Waste Savers, where you'll find items approaching or past their best before date at reduced prices. Embrace conscious consumption, reduce food waste, and give these products a second chance. Your purchase not only saves you money but also contributes to a more sustainable and mindful approach to nourishment.
