Terre Exotique White Penja Pepper Gi, 250g

Description

Terre Exotique’s white Penja pepper is menthol and musky – a fantastic pairing for red meat, game and zingy fruits. The pepper is harvested when ripe, washed and left to dry in the sun – the process is done entirely by hand by local villagers in Cameroon.  

This pepper is perfect for using in a pepper mill, or grind the peppercorns in a pestle and mortar, then use to season oysters, stir through rich beef stews, or sprinkle over wedges of pineapple.  

In 2014, white Penja pepper was awarded PGI status (Protected Geographical Indication), becoming the first product of the African continent to gain this accolade. 

This 250g bag is ideal for home and professional kitchens – the white Penja pepper comes in opaque packaging, protecting it from light and preserving the fresh flavour, while the flat base makes it easy to store.

About Terre Exotique

Terre Exotique works directly with hundreds of specialist farmers and producers around the world – to bring the very best peppers, spices and salts to our tables. The company was founded by Erwann de Kerros, a Breton and seasoned traveller. After tasting pepper in the Penja plantation in Cameroon, Kerros yearned to try other specialist peppers and spices – and Terre Exotique was born.

The company works closely with farmers to preserve natural habitats, and to ensure a sustainable income for local communities. Each spice is carefully packed in pouches – the opaque packaging preserves the flavours and aroma of your spice, by protecting them from sunlight. So the ingredients stay at their best for longer.
