Everything at a glance Organic white pepper grains 500 g
It is impossible to imagine a kitchen lacking pepper, right? But, although black pepper is what comes first to mind, remember that white pepper is also a must-have; many savoury delicacies actually prefer it to its black version. Both black and white pepper best develops their taste if freshly ground: this is why the white pepper you can find on our platform is exclusively sold in grains that you can easily ground at home with your pepper mill. This way, the versatile and powerful spice won't lose its taste, and be always ready to take your dishes to another level – whether meat, fish, or vegetable-based.
One of our favourite spices!
Far ahead of trendy colleagues like turmeric and ginger, pepper is Europe's favourite spice – and rightly so, as all hearty dishes that can use a bit of spiciness can be refined and improved with white pepper. Peppercorns come from a plant that is mainly found in India, Malaysia, Vietnam and Brazil. The fruits of the pepper plant grow in ears capable of carrying up to 150 peppercorns! The color of the grains depends on the degree of ripeness. First the pepper fruits are green, they are harvested shortly before they are fully ripe when they are green to orange in color.
Valuable grains
In the Roman Empire, pepper was considered a valuable means of payment – this is exactly where the phrase "peppered prices" comes from, which incidentally means nothing more than high prices. Nowadays pepper is, thank goodness, available in all colours and shapes at affordable prices, as you can see with our practical and convenient bulk-sized bags of white and black pepper grains.
What makes our white pepper so special
Our organic white peppercorns will win you over with their pleasant sharpness and versatility. Are you wondering why our white pepper isn't really white? The reason is that, usually, peppercorns are bleached with chlorine to obtain and preserve the white colour. As we want our products to be as natural as possible, however, we avoided using any additional treatment agents. Our white pepper comes, therefore, comes without additives and in organic quality at a fair price. Moreover, thanks to our bulk packs, we can offer it to you for a very low, fair price. Could it get any better?

What is the KoRo price chart?
In this chart, you can see the price per base unit (mainly 100g). In addition, you will learn the reason for a price reduction or increase by clicking on the information circles. -
Why is the price fluctuating?
Most annual product crops have an impact on the relationship between supply and demand in the market. In the event of a bad harvest, we must also pay a higher price for raw materials. Due to the strong impact of external factors such as wind, weather, climate and natural events on the harvest, we are refusing long-term cross-harvest contracts with our producers. -
Why are we communicating price changes at KoRo?
Open communication is very important to us and therefore part of our vision. For this reason, we would like to keep you informed of the evolution of our prices. Thus, the KoRo price chart provides a transparent overview of the evolution of the products prices over time.
Organic white pepper grains 500 g - a look behind the scenes
Hier wird weißer Pfeffer angebaut
Weißer Pfeffer stammt ursprünglich aus Indien, heute wird er aber auch in Indonesien, Thailand, Kambodscha, Vietnam, China, Malaysia, Madagaskar und Sri Lanka angebaut.
Die Pfeffer Pflanze
Die Pfefferpflanze ist eine Kletterpflanze, die bis zu 10 Meter hoch wird. Die Pfefferpflanze bringt unter anderem grüne, weiße und schwarze Pfefferkörner hervor. Die verschiedenen Farben der Pfefferkörner sind übrigens auf unterschiedliche Reifegrade zurückzuführen und nicht auf eine andere Sorte des Pfeffergewächses.
So lange reift der Pfeffer
Die Reifezeit des weißen Pfeffers beträgt circa 8 bis 9 Monate. Ständig wird überprüft, ob der Pfeffer bereit für die Ernte ist. Sobald der Pfeffer endlich reif ist und eine grüne bis orangene Farbe hat, wird er geerntet. Die weiße Farbe bekommt der Pfeffer dadurch, dass er im weiteren Herstellungsprozess geschält wird.
So wird Pfeffer geerntet
Um weißen Pfeffer zu erhalten, wird die Frucht der Pfefferpflanze – die Pfefferbeere – reif geerntet. Das passiert meistens von Hand, da ansonsten die zarte Pfefferbeere beschädigt werden würde.
Weißer oder schwarzer Pfeffer?
Ob man weißen oder schwarzen Pfeffer verwenden möchte, hängt vom Geschmack ab. Weißer Pfeffer ist schärfer als schwarzer Pfeffer. Und auch in der Herstellung unterscheiden die beiden sich. Denn schwarzer und weißer Pfeffer stammen tatsächlich von der gleichen Pflanze. Der Unterschied zwischen den verschiedenfarbigen Pfeffersorten ist der Reifegrad und die Weiterverarbeitung.
So wird Pfeffer hergestellt
Nachdem der Pfeffer geerntet wird, wird er anschließend in Wasser eingeweicht, so dass man die Schale und das Fruchtfleisch leicht entfernen kann. So bleibt nur der weiße Samen übrig. Dadurch entfällt auch das holzige Aroma, dass wir vom schwarzen Pfeffer kennen. Die aufwändigere Herstellung des weißen Pfeffers ist übrigens auch der Grund, weswegen die weiße Variante etwas teurer als die schwarze Variante ist.
