| Remarks | Black pepper is the dried immature fruit. White pepper is the dried mature fruit after removing the epicarp. Black pepper: Eared immature fruits are harvested. Then the fruit is separated from the ear by hand kneading, immersed in boiling water until the surface turns to black, lifted from the water and dried. White pepper: Mature fruits are bagged and immersed in flowing water for a week. Then the pericarp and sarcocarp are removed. The remaining seed is dried. Alternatively, it is made by just removing the pericarp and sarcocarp of Black pepper. Hujiao originally came from Southern India to Europe in about B.C.400, and to China in Tang Dynasty. Hujiao opened the Age of Geographical Discovery (the era started by the discovery of shipping route to India). At the time, during late 15th to 16th century, its value was equivalent to gold. | |||||
