White peppercorns are fully-ripened berries that are sun-dried after their red outer skin is removed. Gourmet cooks often use white pepper to flavor white sauces and other light-colored dishes because of its color and more delicate flavor.
Botanical name: Piper nigrum L.
Suggested Uses: The subtle, less biting flavor of white pepper can be used a bit more freely than black. White pepper is available both whole (good for marinades or pickles and peppermill blends) and ground-- for use in a shaker or in light-colored sauces or fish, chicken and potato dishes.
