McCormick Black Pepper, Whole 25 lbs 11.34kg

McCormick Whole Black Pepper is made from the dried berries of the tropical pepper vine Piper nigrum. The berries are harvested at maturity and sun-dried until they darken, developing a bold aroma and the sharp, woody pepper flavor characteristic of high-quality black pepper.

Whole black peppercorns are a staple ingredient in commercial kitchens and food production environments where pepper is ground fresh as needed. Grinding pepper just before use releases the natural aromatic oils contained within the peppercorn, producing a stronger and more fragrant flavor than pre-ground pepper. For this reason, whole peppercorns are widely preferred for consistent seasoning in high-volume operations.

Whole peppercorns are also used intact in applications where a gradual release of heat and aroma is desired. They are commonly added to soups, stocks, stews, brines, pickling spice blends, and herb sachets, where they infuse flavor during long cooking processes and are removed before serving or packaging.

Black pepper’s heat comes primarily from the natural compound piperine, while much of its aroma comes from volatile oils that dissipate when ground too far in advance. To preserve both flavor and aroma, pepper is often ground close to the point of use or added whole to long-simmered recipes.

The 25 lb size is designed for high-volume and continuous-use environments, providing a dependable supply of whole peppercorns for grinding, cracking for rubs, blending into spice mixes, or use in large-scale cooking and production.
