white pepper
Huskless peppercorn powder
White pepper is pepper made from the same plant as black pepper, but with the outer husk removed before drying.
The result is milder and less aromatic, preferred in light-colored dishes where black specks would be visible: The cream sauce calls for white pepper.
Some find it slightly musty or fermented in flavor.
