Product code: P40003
Coarse Black Pepper 18# HT is a premium-grade spice ingredient sourced from the dried berries of Piper nigrum. With an 18-mesh grind size, this coarse cut delivers a bold aroma, robust flavour, and visually appealing texture ideal for culinary, seasoning, and savoury applications. The product has been heat treated (HT) to ensure reduced microbial load and enhanced food safety, while maintaining the natural essential oil content and characteristic pungency of black pepper. Processed under controlled conditions, this ingredient provides consistent particle size and flavour intensity for use in dry spice blends, marinades, sauces, and ready-meal formulations. It offers a natural source of piperine — the alkaloid responsible for black pepper’s distinctive heat and aroma — while supporting clean-label, minimally processed product claims. Black pepper has been valued for centuries as both a culinary spice and functional ingredient, contributing to digestive support and flavour enhancement. While no specific health claims are authorised in the UK or EU, its natural composition makes it a versatile addition to both food and nutritional formulations. Our Coarse Black Pepper 18# HT is fully traceable and batch-tested for quality, safety, and compliance. It is suitable for vegan and vegetarian applications and supplied with comprehensive technical documentation including specification, MSDS, and Certificate of Analysis — reflecting Cambridge Commodities’ commitment to quality, service, and innovation in natural ingredients.
