Long Pepper (Pippali) – Piper longum
Long pepper, also known as Indian long pepper or Pippali in Ayurveda, is a flowering vine from the Piperaceae family. It is cultivated for its dried fruit, which is widely used as a spice, seasoning, and therapeutic herb in traditional medicine systems like Ayurveda, Siddha, and Unani.
Flavor and Botanical Features :-
Long pepper has a flavor profile similar to that of black pepper (Piper nigrum), though it is generally sweeter and milder in pungency.
The fruit is composed of many tiny seeds, each about the size of a poppy seed, embedded in a catkin-like spike resembling a hazel flower.
It contains piperine, the same pungent compound found in black pepper, which contributes to its distinctive kick.
