Black Pepper

Pepper is a common culinary spice derived from dried berries of the pepper plant. There are different types of peppers, such as black pepper, white pepper, green pepper, and red pepper. Black pepper is the most widely used and is typically ground to add flavor and spice to various dishes. White pepper is made from ripe pepper berries with the outer skin removed, giving it a milder taste. Green and red peppers are not actually derived from the same plant but are types of bell peppers, used as vegetables in cooking.
