Description
Kampot Green Pepper PGI is one of the most distinctive premium peppers in the world. Grown in the Kampot region of Cambodia, this rare green pepper is appreciated by chefs and food lovers for its fresh vegetal aroma, elegant spiciness and long, refined finish.
Unlike ordinary peppercorns, Kampot green pepper is harvested before full maturity. The berries are carefully selected, separated from the clusters, gently blanched and slowly dried to preserve their natural aromatic profile. The result is a pepper that feels fresh, green and expressive, with delicate notes that may remind you of herbs, young vegetables and asparagus.
This is an excellent finishing pepper for people who enjoy high-quality ingredients and want to add depth to simple dishes. Use it with grilled fish, seafood, poultry, creamy sauces, vegetables, eggs, cheese, soups, salads and Asian-inspired recipes. It also works beautifully in pepper sauces, marinades and gourmet spice blends.
