Native to Indonesia, Long Peppers look like tiny cattails and once ground, roasted or simply snapped in two, they release an incredible floral bouquet. Long Pepper on a small vine related to true pepper and cubeb pepper. 

The aroma is sweet, fragrant and musk-like and the flavor is similarly musky and peppery.

Usage Suggections

  Used in many exotic Asian dishes and clear soups.  Long Pepper goes well with galangal, turmeric and kenchur in rich, thick curries. As whole long pepper is difficult to grind, we have added ground long pepper to the range.  2 teaspoons of ground long pepper added to a rendang or Balinese curry will give it a mystical and authentic flavor.
