White Pepper (Safed Mirch)

White Pepper (Safed Mirch)

Smooth, earthy, and subtly spicy, white pepper offers gentle heat without altering the colour of dishes. Commonly used in light gravies, soups, marinades, and continental-style Indian recipes, Safed Mirch adds warmth while keeping flavours clean and balanced.

Myth Buster:
❌ White pepper is weaker than black pepper
✅ Truth: White pepper has a different heat profile — milder in aroma but sharper and more lingering in taste.

Chef’s Tip:
Add white pepper towards the end of cooking to preserve its delicate flavour and aroma.
