Ankerkraut Tellicherry Pepper, Whole, 70 g

India is known for its variety of spices. Something very special is the Tellicherry pepper from the southwest of the country. It is harvested on the so-called Pepper Coast, and the variety is considered one of the best in the world. He gets its name from the port city of Tellicherry. The highest quality level, Garbled Special Extra Bold, is harvested by hand. To prepare the Tellicherry only the largest pepper fruits are used, and the harvest takes place shortly before maturity. The berries are orange or yellow at this time; the flavors and the dark color develop during drying. Due to the long latency of the pepper, this is called a late harvest product. Tellicherry pepper has a light citrus aroma and resin flavor. The flavor is spicy and long lasting. To ensure that the flavor remains as long as possible, it is recommended not to use it as a cooking pepper. Tellicherry pepper can be used for all meat dishes, and is also suitable for the finishing of dark soups or sauces. In ground state, it is an integral part of Asian and oriental spice mixtures.
