Black, white, and green peppercorns all come from the same plant, but they are harvested at different times and handled differently. To make black pepper, the clusters are plucked when they are not quite ripe. They are then left in piles to ferment. After a few days, the berries are spread out on a mat and left to dry in the sun for two or three more days until they are shriveled and nearly black. Black pepper has been cultivated for thousands of years on the Malabar coast of southwestern India, in the region defined by the modern state of Kerala. For much of the last two thousand years, black pepper was a luxury for the very rich, a commodity so valuable that it was even used as money. Nowadays, black pepper is widely used around the world and in the cuisines of almost every nation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGreen peppercorns have a piquant, fresh flavor that suits wild game dishes like duck and goose quite well. They have been used quite liberally in French\/Creole and Thai cooking, and can be substituted in any dish that calls for regular pepper. Unlike black or white peppercorns, green peppercorns can easily be crushed between your fingers just before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote: Avoid excessive use of pepper (more than 1 teaspoon per day) if you take prescription digoxin (Lanoxin) or phenytoin (Dilantin). Too much pepper may slow the rate at which the liver clears these medications from the bloodstream.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePepper has strong protective qualities in Magic. It can be added to amulets to ward off the evil eye, and it can also be used in a personal amulet to free your thoughts from pettiness and envy. When ground down with salt and spread across the property, it keeps away evil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeywords: Protection\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor educational purposes only.
