LONG PEPPER - HOTNESS AND SWEET COMBINED
In the partly barren area at the foot of the Himalayas , in Nepal , but also in southern India , long pepper thrives as a wild plant . The fruit heads of this climbing plant are used as a spice. The spiciness of the long pepper is very similar to that of the black pepper. However, long pepper has a sweet taste , which connoisseurs describe as a fine mixture of nuances of dark chocolate , ginger and licorice . Some of the most common types of black pepper lose their aroma with heat - long pepper, on the other hand, retains its aroma even after prolonged exposure to heat.
Visually, long pepper differs from other types of pepper in its shape. It is between two and six centimeters long , with an average diameter of about half a centimeter. By the way, the Latin name for long pepper is Piper longum . In alternative medicine, the long pepper is said to have an expectorant and digestive effect. In Ayurvedic medicine, long pepper is one of the spices that are said to rejuvenate and cleanse the human body.

Spicy sophistication = long pepper
Hearty braised dishes , stews and lamb are some of the dishes that long pepper goes well with. You simply cook the aromatic spice or cut the individual pepper sticks into small pieces that are about half a centimeter long. Scissors are ideal for this. The smaller you process the long pepper, the more spiciness it becomes. And the long pepper tastes particularly hot if you crush it in a mortar.
To give your dishes a mild spiciness, use the whole pepper stick. The liquid absorbed during cooking makes the long pepper soft and gives off a mild spiciness and aroma. After the end of the cooking time, you can easily remove the long pepper from the cookware. A little more spiciness goes wonderfully with lamb and game. For these dishes, crush the long pepper in a mortar and add the crushed spice to the cooking pot right at the beginning.
Asian dishes also benefit from the unique taste and spiciness of the long pepper. Try the pepper in curries and other typical Asian dishes!
