Apakah Lada Putih Sarawak?
White Pepper (, Bái Hú Jiāo) is the fully ripened fruit of Piper nigrum with its outer skin removed by soaking and processing. While Black Pepper () is the same berry dried before ripening with the skin intact, White Pepper is considered hotter and more penetrating in TCM, with a cleaner, sharper flavour and a more focused action on warming the Stomach and Large Intestine. Its acrid, hot nature makes it an effective herb for dispelling interior cold.
In TCM, cold invasion of the Stomach and intestines causes abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhoea, and nausea. White Pepper warms the middle burner, dispels cold, and moves Qi to stop pain and halt vomiting and diarrhoea from cold patterns. It is also used to stimulate appetite when suppressed by cold-dampness. As a familiar culinary spice, Bái Hú Jiāo exemplifies the Chinese food-medicine tradition, where warming spices serve both the kitchen and the dispensary.
Sejarah & Asal Usul
Pepper has been traded along the Silk Road since antiquity, reaching China before the Common Era and becoming one of the most valued spice-medicines across every major dynasty.
