WHAT IS THE FLAVOR OF BRAZILIAN BLACK PEPPER

At Comptoir de Toamasina, we have the immense pleasure of introducing you to an exceptional range of Brazilian black peppers, including black pepper from Belém, Rio Tocantins and Saint Mathieu. Each of these peppers offers a distinct and refined taste experience.

Para Black Pepper found in France under the name Belém pepper: An Invaluable Wealth

Cultivated in the lush Para region of Brazil, black pepper is nicknamed Belém pepper in France, which is a false name because in Belem you do not have any pepper production.

The aromatic power of Para pepper is lower than pepper from other regions of Brazil. It is also one of the cheapest peppers in the world. Bélem black pepper can be bought for less than 3 euros per kilo.

It offers tangy notes due to the soil of the Amazon which is acidic, it has a citric touch, with rounded notes. Some will see notes of lily, a touch of hibiscus. It is a good pepper for every day or for making cold meats.

Black Pepper from Rio Tocantins: A Natural Force

It was in 2020 that a European importer introduced me to this pepper. It is true that Arnaud looked for a new pepper from Brazil in addition to black pepper from Saint Mathieu.

Harvested in the lush plantations of Mocajuba, Rio Tocantins black pepper is distinguished by its potency of 8/10 and its smoky and woody notes, evoking the immensity of the Amazon. In the mouth, it is spicy with very good length, ideal for spicing up your savory dishes, especially meats.

Saint Mathieu Black Pepper: Wild Intensity

Cultivated in the state of Espirito Santo, Saint Matthew black pepper is one of the strongest in the world with a potency of 9.5/10. It offers wild, woody and lemony notes, bringing unparalleled richness to your culinary preparations. In the mouth, it stimulates the taste buds with an intense spiciness that transports you to the heart of Brazilian lands.

It is a pepper that comes from the Ranger expedition. Arnaud went to the state of Espirito Santo to buy this exceptional pepper.

Currently, we sell it single in large quantities, 100 or 200kg directly from our Counter in Brazil.

Soups and Stews: A hint of Brazilian black pepper in soups and stews can make all the difference. It not only adds heat, but also an aromatic dimension that enriches the broth or soup base.
With Vegetables: Grilled or sautéed vegetables also benefit from the addition of Brazilian black pepper. It accentuates the natural sweetness of vegetables while providing a slight spicy touch.
For Vegetarian Dishes: In vegetarian dishes, Brazilian black pepper can be the key ingredient that adds that much sought-after "umami" flavor, making the dish satisfying and flavorful even without meat.
