All about Pepper, White
The difference between white peppercorns and black peppercorns is when the berries are harvested. White peppercorns are fully ripened berries that once picked, have their outer skin removed.
When choosing between black and white, aesthetics are frequently the consideration. When making a white or light colored dish, you may simply not want black flecks in it!
White pepper is somewhat milder than black, but still hot, earthy and spicy.
Chinese - Ground white pepper is used in Chinese cuisine for soups, and in marinades for meat or poultry.
Indian - In Indian cuisine, white pepper is used for white or cream-based curries or gravies..
Vietnamese - White pepper is popular in Vietnamese cooking, in soups and pork dishes.
1/2 tsp white pepper = 1/2 tsp black pepper

In response to concerns over food safety, many in the spice industry are taking measures to provide you with the information you seek. While testing has always been conducted, certificates of analysis (COAs) are now accompanying most products through the supply chain. COAs identify country of origin, certifications, best by dates, and information on product testing.
As of August 2022, Smith & Truslow spice jar labels have “best by” dates (as opposed to “packaged on” dates), and include lot numbers that correspond to the COA for the enclosed spice or herb. If you would like to review the COA for the lot we are currently selling, or for one that you have already purchased, please send an email to: customerservice@smithandtruslow.com. Be sure to indicate 1) the spice name, and 2) the lot number, and we’ll respond with a PDF of the COA, as is available.
