What is Vietnam pepper?
Vietnam pepper is a type of pepper that is grown and processed in Vietnam. Vietnam pepper’s typical yearly output is around 250,000 tons, with an average export value of approximately 3000 USD per ton.
Types of Vietnam pepper used for export
There are three types of Vietnam pepper used for export nowadays: black pepper, white pepper, and ground pepper.
Black pepper: Black pepper is the most well-known and widely used pepper in Vietnam. Black pepper is a somewhat spicy spice with a faint aroma that is commonly used to enhance the peppery, toasty flavor of a meal. Coughs, sore throats, and colds are common diseases for which black pepper is used as a medicine or cure.
White pepper: This type has a ivory-white or gray-white color. Because they’ve been overcooked, they have a more peppery flavor. White pepper is frequently used to provide an aroma for opulent meals without detracting from the dish’s aesthetics and color.
Ground pepper: Ground pepper is black or white pepper that has been finely ground. Pepper powder is a spice that enhances the attractiveness and flavor of foods. People in Vietnam frequently use ground pepper or purchase the seeds to grind or use.
