Green peppercorns are the unripe berries of the Piper nigrum plant, the same plant that produces black, white, and red peppercorns. Unlike their black counterparts, green peppercorns are harvested early and either dried or preserved in brine or vinegar to maintain their fresh, slightly tangy, and mildly spicy flavor. They are commonly used in French and Thai cuisine, adding a bright, peppery kick to sauces, meats, and stir-fries. With a more delicate heat than black pepper, they complement creamy dishes like steak au poivre and enhance complex spice blends. Rich in antioxidants and digestive benefits, green peppercorns have been valued in traditional medicine for stimulating appetite and aiding metabolism.
