PENJA BLACK PEPPER 70g

£9.50

Poivre Noir de Penja

The outstanding character and flavour of this black Penja pepper are due to the naturally rich and balanced volcanic soils in which it grows. In 2014, it became the first product of the African continent to obtain Protected Geographic Indication status (PGI). This black Penja pepper will delight your stews, goat cheese and strongly flavoured meats.

Penja pepper became in 2014, the first Protected Geographical Indication of the African continent. It is harvested near the city of Penja, in the province of Moungo.

Once picked, the fresh green pepper is sun-dried for a few days. Under the effect of the sun, the water contained in the grains of fresh green pepper evaporates. The green grains are depigmenting and blackening, wrinkles appear. We then obtain the first black peppercorns from Penja.

This pepper is sorted grain by grain by the expert hands of Cameroonian women. The volcanic lands of Penja give black pepper aromas of camphor, incense and leather.

On the palate, it has an acidic and biting heat, reminiscent of the tannic smell of red wine. Its tangy, warm, biting notes go hand in hand with roasted meat and mashed sweet potatoes.

Usage: This Penja black pepper is perfect for a pepper sauce, roast beef fillet, a thin fish fillet, duck breast with peaches, simple vegetable pie or pear caramelized with honey.

TRANSIT TIMES & PACKAGING

All ingredients that we sell are hand selected choosing from the best product available.

We only use premium express courier services and aim to have produce out of our hands and into yours in the shortest possible time.

All perishable goods orders are safely packed in high quality mixed recyclable insulated packaging to keep your products perfect through the courier network, guaranteeing freshness for a minimum of 2 full days in transit. Much longer in colder seasons.

FROZEN PRODUCTS

The vast majority of frozen food shipments arrive frozen but we cannot guarantee this.  In the event that your order has defrosted it should still be at a very low temperature when you receive it and therefore fine to put in straight in your freezer.  Refreezing is only unsafe if the product has reached 8°c. It is worth mentioning that supermarkets routinely sell defrosted food as "fresh", with the advice that it may be frozen when you get home.

FRESH TRUFFLES

All fresh truffles are sent in a foil resealable pack with an absorbent paper.  This is suitable for storing in your fridge.  If storing truffles for more than a few days we recommend wrapping them in paper towel or using a Tuberpac.  Fresh truffles are always best consumed as soon as possible.
