Black pepper is a popular spice used to add flavor to food. It comes from small berries that are dried and ground into a powder. People have been using black pepper for cooking for a very long time.
生息地: Tropical regions
The Black Pepper is a woody perennial climbing vine with glossy, dark green leaves that grow alternately along its stems. It produces small, white-yellow flowers in slender spikes, which then develop into green, berry-like fruits that ripen to red and are harvested to make peppercorns.
