Black Pepper, the single most used spice in the world - a simple spice which, along with salt, can impart flavour to any dish!
In fact, it was the search for Black Pepper which provoked ancient explorers to travel afar & discover new lands. So in a way, we Indians can say we are thankful to this #aromaticspice for making our way onto the world map.
In good old days, this pungent spice was so rare & luxurious that it was considered as cash for trading & hence was referred to as “Blackgold”
Native to southern India namely states of Kerala & Karnataka, black pepper or #Kalimirch is used extensively in making powdered #spiceblends & in #masalapaste.
Follow us as @elthecook explores the depth of this ‘Pungent’ spice when tempered in hot ghee. Tempering releases multiple flavor compounds which results in a complex flavor profile of the final dish!
