Black Pepper
Short description ( Black Pepper)
Black pepper is produced from the still-green, unripe drupes of the pepper plant.
One tablespoon (6 grams) of ground black pepper contains moderate amounts of vitamin K (13% of the daily value or DV), iron (10% DV) and manganese (18% DV), with trace amounts of other essential nutrients, protein, and dietary fibre.
Black pepper contains between 4.6 and 9.7% piperine by mass, and white pepper slightly more than that.
