Plant Based Single Origin Spice
Indian Long Pepper
P. longumIndian long pepper is referred to in early Sanskrit Vedas and is essential in Ayurvedic remedies thousands of years ago, and it is today. Once harvested green, and sundried – our long pepper becomes a dark brown to black with a rough-surfaced spike, like a flower catkin. They have a sweet, fragrant aroma like that of orris root with a bitingly hot, lingering numbing, belying its clean scent.
I use the long pepper in my Ayurvedic cooking class at the farm, and just one piece is essential in my chai and turmeric or golden milk to balance my dosha.
When I canned or pickled peaches, apples here in the Hudson Valley, I add a few – to my preserved lemons for that gentle kick to the palate.
Comes in our signature airtight tin, which measures 2-1/2 inches in diameter and 1-3/4 inches in height.
