Frequently added together
What it is
White pepper is the same berry as black pepper, the fruit of Piper nigrum: picked at full maturity, soaked then stripped of its skin, it turns white and takes on a softer, rounder taste. Soft, fresh, slightly musky notes.
Origin
Our family grows this white pepper in Vangaindrano, in south-eastern Madagascar. The berries are soaked, stripped of their skin, then naturally dried, before hand-sorting. Traceability is complete from field to kitchen, because we are the ones who produce it.
All our peppercorns and spices come from Vangaindrano. Our vanilla comes from the SAVA region, in the north-east of the island: two terroirs, two harvests.
In the kitchen
Perfect on fish, shellfish, poultry, delicate soups and white sauces.
- Grind when plating: to preserve the fresh aroma.
- Pale sauces: about 1 teaspoon ground for 4 people.
- Fish and shellfish: a pinch as you serve.
- Mill setting: a fine grind is recommended for sauces.
The mill refills with our 50 g white pepper pouches.
Storage
Store in a dry place, away from heat and light. White pepper keeps its aromas for about 24 months.

What people ask us
The questions we get asked
The answers we give on the phone and at the market, written down once and for all.
1 Should pepper be ground at the last moment?
Yes. A whole corn keeps its aroma; once ground, it loses it within hours. Grind over the plate, as you serve. For a long cooking, add part of the pepper at the start and keep the rest for the end.
2 How much should I use?
Two or three turns of the mill per plate are enough to season without taking over. Wild pepper is more aromatic than hot, so you can be a little more generous. White pepper hits harder, go in small turns. Taste and adjust: you can always add more, never take it back.
3 How long does pepper keep?
As whole corns, in a closed container, away from light and heat, count on 18 to 24 months with no real loss. Old pepper does not become unsafe, it becomes dull. Avoid the clear mill left in the sun on the worktop.
4 Is the pink peppercorn a real pepper?
No. It is the fruit of Schinus terebinthifolius, a tree, not a pepper vine. It is used like a pepper for its sweet, fruity, resinous character, but botanically it is not one. That is why we say peppers and berries.
5 What is the difference between black, white and wild pepper?
Black pepper is picked ripe and dried whole: warm, woody, it is the everyday pepper. White pepper is the same corn with the skin removed: cleaner, straighter, it leaves no black specks in a white sauce. Wild voatsiperifery is picked from the vine in the forest: woody, resinous, minty, it is a finishing pepper.
6 Pouch, mill or jar: which one?
The mill for everyday use, ready on the table. The resealable kraft pouch to refill the mill: it is the lowest price per gram. The two go together, one mill then refills.
7 Is there anything else in the pouch?
No. Whole corns, hand-sorted, no additive, no colouring, no anti-caking agent. Nothing else.
8 Where exactly do your peppers come from?
From Vangaindrano, in the south-east of Madagascar, where our family grows, picks, dries and sorts. All our peppers and all our spices come from there. Our vanilla comes from the SAVA region, in the north-east of the island: two terroirs, two harvests.
