Pepper

Name of some species of piperaceae of the genus Piper, which includes mostly tropical climbing shrubs, with broad leaves, tiny flowers in spikes and drupe fruits used as spices for their distinctive aroma and spicy taste.
Gaetano Caruso, owner of the Centroform cheese factory, talks about the indissoluble link between Sicilian cheese-making tradition and black pepper. A happy marriage that gives life to excellences such as Pecorino al Pepe Nero and Piacentino Ennese
