pepper | whole | green

What is it about / Product description

Biova green pepper comes from the mountainous regions of Sri Lanka and is offered as whole peppercorns in practical bulk packaging. The berries are harvested unripe and gently dehydrated, preserving their fresh, grassy note and characteristic green color. This gives you an aromatic spice with mild to medium heat for both modern and classic cuisine.

Due to direct drying without brine or vinegar, the pure natural flavor of the green pepper remains unadulterated. Whole corns ensure a slow, even release of aroma when grinding or crushing, which is particularly appreciated in gastronomy. Biova relies on carefully selected bulk quality, ideal for professional kitchens and manufactories.

In use, green pepper refines light meat dishes, poultry, fish and seafood as well as creamy sauces and vegetable dishes. Freshly ground, it is perfect for classic pepper sauces and pairs surprisingly well with fruity desserts. This way you can use green pepper as a versatile spice for creative recipes in everyday cooking and in professional kitchens.

Origin

The pepper berries come from the central highlands of Sri Lanka with a tropical climate, abundant rainfall and fertile soils. Small plantations have been cultivating high-quality spices there for decades, which supports a pronounced aroma and consistent quality.

Cultivation / Production / Harvest

The pepper plants grow in mixed cultures under shade trees and are harvested in the unripe, green stage. Immediately after picking, the berries are gently dehydrated to avoid fermentation and to preserve the color and aroma of the whole corns.

Special features

In contrast to pickled pepper in brine, this variant retains the pure taste of the spice. Whole pieces or whole corns can be freshly ground as needed and dosed precisely. Biova bulk packaging with 1.05 kg per unit enables economical use in larger kitchens.

Differences in origin and processing

Depending on the country of origin, the heat and aroma profile of green pepper varies. Sri Lanka is known for particularly aromatic qualities with balanced heat and a fresh, grassy note. Direct dehydration without brine clearly distinguishes this product from industrially pickled variants.

Taste & aroma

The aroma is fresh, slightly herbal and subtly fruity with pleasant, non-dominant heat. On the nose it shows a finely spiced scent, less intense and earthier than black pepper, while the essential oils develop optimally when ground.

Possible applications

• Freshly ground for light sauces, especially classic pepper sauces.
• As a seasoning for pork, chicken, veal, fish and seafood in the pan or on the grill.
• For rounding off fruity desserts with strawberries, pineapple or mango.
