• Product Overview: Black Pepper Powder, known as Mari in many Gujarati households, is made by grinding whole black peppercorns into a fine powder. It is ready to use for quick seasoning at the table and in the kitchen, giving a sharp, aromatic heat. It is a kitchen essential for everything from salads to biryani.

• Ingredients: Black Pepper.

• Flavour & Aroma: The powder has a pungent, spicy, woody aroma and a sharp heat that appears quickly and fades cleanly. It is different from chilli heat, being more fragrant and less lingering, which makes it ideal for finishing dishes.

• Best Uses & Recipe Ideas:
◦ Table seasoning: sprinkle on salads, eggs, soups, sandwiches and fries.
◦ Masala and kadha: used in chai masala, garam masala and herbal kadha.
◦ Marinades: combine with lemon, garlic and salt for chicken, paneer and fish.
◦ Raita and chaas: a pinch adds a peppery kick to yoghurt-based dishes.
◦ Soups and rasam: gives warmth to vegetable soups, rasam and clear broths.

• Traditional Use & Wellness Note: Pepper has been part of Indian winter cooking for generations, from warm soups to pepper tea. It is used as a seasoning that adds both flavour and warmth. Enjoy in moderation.

• Cooking Tips: For the best aroma, add pepper at the end of cooking. Heating it too long can reduce its fragrance and make it bitter. Keep the lid tightly closed since ground pepper loses its aroma faster than whole peppercorns.

• Quality & Purity: Black Pepper Powder (Mari) is carefully processed and packed to give you a fine, aromatic product with natural colour and fragrance. We do not add artificial colours, artificial flavours or fillers, so the taste and aroma you get come only from the ingredients listed above.

• Storage & Shelf Life: Store Black Pepper Powder (Mari) in a clean, dry, airtight container away from heat, sunlight and moisture. Always use a dry spoon and close the lid tightly after use. Powdered spices lose their aroma faster than whole spices, so use it within the best-before period for the best taste.

• Kitchen Handy Tip: For consistent results, measure with a dry spoon rather than shaking the pack over a hot pan, because steam can enter the container and cause lumps.

• Dietary Suitability: Plant-based and free from artificial colours and added sugar, Black Pepper Powder (Mari) is suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets. It is made to be used in normal food quantities and fits easily into everyday Indian home cooking.

• Usage Guide: begin with a quarter to half a teaspoon per serving and increase gradually according to your taste and the recipe. Powdered spices dissolve quickly into oil and liquids, so a small quantity is often enough to flavour a whole pot.

• Bulk & Gifting: a practical monthly refill for busy kitchens, and a dependable choice for caterers, restaurants and home chefs who want the same taste every time. It also works well in a self-assembled spice box for gifting.

• Why Choose This: A practical choice for busy kitchens, since it is ready to use with no grinding or cleaning required. Suitable for homes, restaurants, caterers and tiffin services, and available in pack sizes to match your cooking habits.
