| Product Features Long pepper (Piper longum) is an ancient spice from the Piperaceae family, distinct from black pepper in its appearance and flavor. Its dried form consists of slender, cylindrical spikes made of tightly packed tiny fruits, unlike black pepper’s round berries. It boasts a complex flavor profile: warm and spicy with earthy undertones, subtle sweetness, and mild bitterness—more aromatic than black pepper but equally pungent, yet less sharp. Native to South Asia (India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia), it has been a core ingredient in Ayurvedic practices for millennia, valued for both culinary depth and traditional therapeutic properties. Product Uses Culinarily, long pepper is a versatile ingredient: it is a key component in spice blends like garam masala, used in curries, marinades, pickles, and fruit chutneys to add layers of flavor, and occasionally in sweet dishes to balance tastes. Traditionally, it is employed in Ayurvedic remedies for digestive issues, respiratory support, and anti-inflammatory effects (note: these uses are rooted in ancient practices, not modern medical advice). Modern applications include gourmet cooking and craft cocktails, where its unique taste elevates innovative dishes and drinks.
