Red pepper grains 100 g - LA PLANTIGO

Red pepper in grains - what is the taste of this variety? Red pepper is a cousin of the well-known black variety of this spice with a pronounced taste. Native to South America, it comes from two species of pepper plants: Brazilian and Peruvian. Red pepper has a special aroma and a more delicate flavor than the commonly used black pepper. After harvesting, the berries of the pepper plant are directly soaked in brine or vinegar, or put to dry, which allows them to retain their characteristic taste and valuable nutritional properties. How to use red pepper in cooking? Red pepper in grains is a natural and healthy spice that can be used to complement many savory recipes and refined desserts. Containing capsaicin, the red variety of pepper is characterized by a pungent taste with a slightly sweet note. It goes perfectly with homemade vegetable sauces and meats. It will also be suitable for salads and sweet desserts (e.g. chocolate fondue). Due to its slightly pungent taste, it is advisable to use it to season soups, fish dishes or marinades. A clever idea is to prepare red pepper in brine. This mixture can then be used as an ingredient for seasoning various meats, cold cuts, marinades and sauces.
