The Origin of the Pink Bay

What is Pink Berry

Pink pepper is the fruit of a tree called aroeira in Brazil which is native to South America and from the same family as mango or cashew. The pink berry is not a real pepper, even if it is slightly peppery. However, it does not look like red pepper or black pepper.

You should know that there are two species to produce the pink berry: the mastic-pepper (Schinus terebintifolius, originating in Brazil) and salsa Mastic (Schinus Molle, originating in the colder regions of South America). The two are similar and produce edible berries.

The fruit are small berries which are born at the ends of the branches.

They are very fragile. They have a red or coral pink color. It is very aromatic and especially very fragile seed.

For this reason, they must be handled with care and delicacy. Otherwise, the berry shell breaks and the pink pepper or pink berry loses its beauty.

If one day you want to produce your own pink berries, know that there is one with thin leaves and branches like a weeping willow it is the aroeira-salsa.

The most common is the aroeira-pimenteira which with rounded leaves, stems which become firmer and will form a tree from 7 to 10 meters in height.

If one day you decide to harvest your own pink berries, be aware that the two types of sealant have some differences. The aroeira-salsa has thin leaves and the branches hang like a weeping willow. This is very common in the southern and southeastern regions of Brazil. The aroeira-pimenteira has rounded leaves, stems which become firmer and even form a tree from 7 to 10 meters in height.

Pink berries even grow in Brazilian cities

When you travel to Brazil, there must be one near you. It is a very beautiful tree that attracts bees and birds who come to taste the fruit.

A negative point the tree can cause allergies. Even without touching its leaves, a sensitive person can have an allergy if it stays too close to the tree. We can have itching and discomfort on our skin.

It is a chemical process that causes this. It is called urushiol.

These dermatitis are caused by a chemical group whose main responsibility is urushiol.

Unfortunately, it is aroeira-pimenteira which has the highest content unlike aroeira-salsa.

But both can cause allergies.
