White pepper is prized in Indian, Chinese, and European cooking wherever black specks in a dish are undesirable. Available at Anoras Cash N Carry in Los Angeles.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between white and black pepper? White pepper comes from the same plant as black pepper but the outer skin is removed during processing — resulting in a milder, slightly different flavor profile and a cream-white color without the outer berry husk.

Is white pepper hotter than black pepper? White pepper has a sharper, more direct heat while black pepper has a more complex, aromatic spiciness — they are used differently in cooking rather than being interchangeable.

When should I use white pepper instead of black pepper in Indian cooking? White pepper is used in specific South Indian preparations, certain Mughlai dishes, and whenever a pale or creamy dish should not have dark flecks from black pepper.
