Wholesale Madagascar vanilla pepper

Origin: Madagascar Net volumes and weights: 50 g / 1.76 oz €474/kg Ingredients: Piper nigrum, possible traces of vanilla Description: This exceptional pepper comes from the south of Madagascar, where it draws its unique character from a rare terroir: it grows in the heart of a vanilla plantation. This aromatic proximity subtly influences its flavor profile, giving it a remarkable sensory richness. Hand-harvested with great care, only when the grains reach an advanced stage of maturity and take on an intense red hue, it is picked directly from the cluster, allowing the younger grains time to mature naturally. Once harvested, the grains are washed, then fermented for a few hours in water to remove the skin and retain only the core of the pepper. Finally, they are slowly sun-dried for several days, respecting local artisanal methods. This pepper reveals a refined aromatic palette: gourmet vanilla notes, elegant vegetal freshness, and a remarkable length on the palate. Its spiciness remains delicate, balanced, perfect for enhancing your dishes without overpowering the flavors. Usage tips: We recommend using it at the last moment on your dishes to best develop its aromas. It pairs wonderfully with white meats to accompany a supreme, a blanquette, or a filet mignon. It loves seafood, particularly scallops, lobster, or shrimp. It also pairs well with white fish. It perfectly enhances roasted root vegetables, in velouté or purée, and certain sauces like white sauces or coconut milk-based sauces. For sweet dishes, we recommend it with yellow or exotic fruits. It loves white chocolate, custards, and sorbets.
