What is it about / Product descriptionDiscover one of the most distinctive spice specialities of Chinese cuisine with organic Sichuan pepper. The reddish-brown, whole fruit husks come from certified organic cultivation in China and are characterised by their typical, slightly tingling mouthfeel. Biova offers you this exotic pepper spice in carefully selected quality for authentic Asian dishes.Gentle drying and careful cleaning ensure that the essential oils and complex aroma of the organic Sichuan pepper are optimally preserved. It is intensely spicy, but not hot like black pepper, and leaves a slightly numbing, lemony-fresh sensation on the tongue. The whole product can be crushed in a mortar or freshly ground in a mill as needed.In modern cuisine, organic Sichuan pepper opens up numerous possible uses – from classic wok dishes and marinades to creative fusion recipes. Use the whole capsules for cooking or briefly roast them to intensify the aroma.

In the mountainous regions with a temperate climate, the shrubs find ideal conditions to grow slowly and develop an intense aroma. The selection of suitable growing areas and experienced partner farms ensures consistently high quality.Cultivation / Production / HarvestThe plants are cultivated within the framework of organic farming, without synthetic pesticides or mineral nitrogen fertilisers. After ripening, the fruit husks are harvested by hand, carefully sorted and gently dried. The whole capsules are then cleaned and packed in bulk for Biova.Special featuresA special feature of Sichuan pepper is that, botanically speaking, it is not a true pepper, but the dried husks of a citrus plant. This creates the characteristic interplay of lemony freshness, spiciness and a slightly numbing effect. The reddish-brown colour and whole form also make the spice visually attractive for decorative applications.Differences in origin and processingDepending on the growing region in China, there may be nuances in the aroma – ranging from more lemony-fresh to warm-spicy. The time of harvest and the drying process also influence the intensity of the tingling effect. Biova places great importance on even drying and careful sorting in order to deliver a clean, intensely aromatic product with as little breakage as possible.Taste & aromaIn its aroma, Sichuan pepper shows a fresh, citrus-like note with subtle resinous hints. On the palate it is initially aromatic and spicy, followed by a slight tingling and a briefly numbing sensation on the tongue and lips. This sensory experience clearly distinguishes it from black or white pepper and makes it particularly versatile in fine cuisine.Possible usesAs a seasoning for Asian stir-fries, wok vegetables and noodle dishes.In marinades and rubs for meat, poultry, fish or tofu.For flavouring sauces, stocks, dressings or creative citrus-accented desserts.Product specificationCountry of origin: ChinaGrain size: whole fruit husksColour: reddish-brownWeight unit: 1.05 kg per kg of bulk goodsProduct type: organic spice, whole Sichuan pepper

What is it about / Product descriptionBiova green pepper comes from the mountainous, densely forested regions of Sri Lanka and is gently cracked. The pepper berries, harvested green, retain their fresh color and characteristic, slightly herbaceous aroma thanks to rapid drying. The spice gives hearty as well as fruity dishes a pleasantly piquant heat.Because the pepper is dehydrated directly after harvest, it does not ferment and its flavor remains clear and unadulterated. The coarse, granulated structure ensures an even distribution in the dish and an intense aroma when biting on individual pieces. As conventional bulk goods, this pepper is ideal for professional kitchens and the food processing industry.In the kitchen, Biova green pepper can be used in many ways – from classic pepper sauces to creative combinations with fruit. The cracked form is ready to use and saves the grinding step without sacrificing freshness and seasoning power.

The combination of fertile soils and gentle cultivation enables consistently high quality. When selecting producers, Biova pays attention to careful drying and sorting of the pepper berries.Cultivation / Production / HarvestThe berries are harvested green and still unripe by hand, when their aroma is particularly fresh and vegetal. Immediately after picking, they are dehydrated to prevent unwanted fermentation. The coarse cracking then follows, creating a granulated grain size that is easy to dose.Special featuresIn contrast to brined pepper, this dry variant retains its natural inherent flavor in full. The cracked form combines intense seasoning power with a pleasant texture in the dish. As a discontinued item at Biova, this product is only available in limited quantities and is particularly suitable for lovers of characterful spices.Differences in origin and processingGreen pepper from Sri Lanka is characterized by a fresh, slightly fruity aroma that differs from the more robust qualities of other growing regions.

What is it about / Product descriptionThis Tellicherry pepper from Biova comes from the South Indian state of Kerala and is one of the particularly aromatic pepper rarities. The almost fully ripe berries are coarsely cracked and show a reddish-brown color with a warm, multi-layered character. As high-quality bulk goods, this pepper is ideal for professional kitchens and discerning connoisseurs.Due to the late harvest, the berries develop an intense, slightly nutty pungency that is significantly more complex than that of conventional black pepper.

The tropical climate with high rainfall and fertile soils offers ideal conditions for the vines. Small farms supply the berries, which are selected for Biova according to defined quality criteria.Cultivation / Production / HarvestThe pepper plants grow on supports and are harvested at almost full ripeness, when the berries reach their typical reddish-brown stage.

The combination of almost fully ripe harvest and careful drying gives it its warm, slightly nutty aroma. As bulk goods with a coarse grind, it is specially suited for kitchens that value consistent quality and efficient processing.Differences in origin and processingCompared to standard pepper from other regions, Tellicherry pepper is harvested later and selected more strictly.

What is it about / Product descriptionVoatsiperifery pepper from the wild rainforests of Madagascar is considered a rare pepper specialty with a distinctive character. The whole black berries are traded as Bourbon pepper and are characterized by their irregular, natural shape. At Biova you receive this rarity as high-quality bulk goods for sophisticated cuisine.Thanks to the slow ripening in the tropical primeval forests, Voatsiperifery pepper develops a complex aroma profile with a pleasantly warm heat.

The warm, humid climate, rich soils and natural shade of tall trees create ideal conditions for the slow ripening of the fruits. Since the plants are not cultivated, the character of wild growth is fully preserved.Cultivation / Production / HarvestVoatsiperifery pepper grows wild on lianas up to 20 meters high that climb up trees. The ripe red berries are harvested by small-scale farmers using traditional manual methods, often under difficult conditions in dense jungle.

Unlike cultivated varieties, this Bourbon pepper is not suitable for plantation cultivation and remains a purely wild product. The combination of artisanal harvesting, limited availability and exceptional aroma makes it particularly interesting for delicatessens, gastronomy and spice manufacturers.Differences in origin and processingCompared to classic black pepper from plantation cultivation, Madagascan wild forest pepper offers a much more individual aroma and a more rustic appearance. The wild-collected whole berries show slight differences in size and shape, reflecting their natural origin.
