Etymology

The word 'pepper' comes from the Old English 'pipor', which has roots in the Latin 'piper' and the Greek 'piperi'. Historically, pepper has been a highly valued spice, often referred to as 'black gold', and was used in trade across ancient civilizations. By the Middle Ages, it was a crucial commodity in European markets, where it was used not only for culinary purposes but also for preserving foods. The act of peppering as a culinary technique became more prominent as the spice spread throughout different cultures, evolving into the modern practice of seasoning food with pepper to achieve a desirable flavor profile. Today, pepper belongs to a family of spices that includes various types like white pepper and chili pepper, each contributing uniquely to cooking practices worldwide.
