African Long Pepper (Kanifi) \u2013 25g, 50g and 100g<\/strong><\/h3>\n

African long pepper, also called Kanifi<\/em>, Selim berry<\/em> or Selim pepper<\/em>, is a precious spice native to West Africa. Its unique shape, in the shape of an elongated stick, hides a surprising aromatic richness. From the first use, you will discover warm aromas of cinnamon, pepper, liquorice and ginger.<\/p>\n

This pepper captivates with its deep fragrance and slightly sweet flavor. Less spicy than black pepper, it brings a gentle heat, ideal for stews. Its complex taste profile enhances both savory dishes and certain sweet preparations. It thus becomes a perfect ally for a creative and fragrant cuisine.<\/p>\n

Traditionally, it is used whole, grated or crushed in African sauces, especially in mbongo tchobi<\/em>. It can be easily integrated into a broth, curry, vegetable soup or meat dish. Some even add it to melted chocolate for a stunning contrast.<\/p>\n

To release its aromas, you can saut\u00e9 it briefly in hot oil. You can also crush it with a mortar before incorporating it into the cooking. In general, a single stick of 2 to 3 cm is enough for a dish for four people.<\/p>\n

Packaged in 25g, 50g and 100g bags, African long pepper can be stored in an airtight jar, away from humidity. It is aimed at lovers of traditional cuisine as well as chefs looking for new flavours.<\/p>\n

Other names:<\/strong> long pepper, African long pepper, Kanifi, Selim berry, Selim pepper, African sweet pepper, forest pepper, whole long pepper.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
