Description
Smoked Kampot Black Pepper PGI is a rare gourmet pepper from the Kampot region of southern Cambodia, an area known for producing some of the world’s most aromatic peppers. This black pepper has protected geographical indication status, making it a premium choice for food lovers, home cooks and anyone who wants to add real depth to everyday dishes.
The peppercorns are harvested at the right stage of ripeness, sorted, washed, blanched and sun-dried before being cold-smoked for several hours using coconut shells and rice husks. This careful process gives the pepper its distinctive balance of floral, resinous, woody and gently smoky notes.
Use it freshly crushed or coarsely ground to preserve its smoky aroma. It is excellent with grilled steak, barbecue dishes, salmon, shrimp, sardines, mackerel, grilled eggplant, tomato salad, scrambled eggs, tofu, burrata, bruschetta, carbonara, cacio e pepe, pizza sauces and rich mushroom sauces. For something more creative, try it with dark chocolate or in cocktails such as Bloody Mary, martini or gin and tonic.
