ground pepper

Crushed peppercorn powder

Ground pepper is pepper that has been crushed or milled into powder form, as opposed to whole peppercorns.

Black pepper is the most common variety, though white, green, and mixed peppercorns are also ground.

Pre-ground pepper is convenient but loses flavor faster than freshly ground: I keep a pepper mill on the table for freshly ground pepper.
