If you have been to Kampot and tried the signature dish Kampot Pepper Crab, you’ll know what we are taking about. Freshly plucked pepper is green and has a distinctive taste- one that we in Europe are not used to, because we mostly know pepper as black, dry and ground over our dishes.

Unfortunately, like a lettuce leaf, pepper berries do not remain good for more than a few days. So we harvest the berries early, preserve then in our Fleur de Sel and seal in the flavour in a vacuum pouch- all within 2 hours of harvesting. We developed this system- which is different from any other pepper berries in brine that you might find elsewhere- because people come to our farm and often ask us how they can get fresh green pepper to take home with them.

We produce just 200 units of our Green Salted Pepper Berries, so this time-sensitive delicacy is really a rare treat.

Judges Comments:

“Consistently sized little berries. […] The taste is remarkable. Bright with fresh heat, really spicy and peppery. Good texture, firm but not gritty. These would bring a real lift to whatever you added them to - we are now craving a steak au poivre made with these! Great peppery heat that grows to a most satisfying level. Sparkling and full of flavour.”

“These tiny olive green balls are pretty. The aroma is saline. The flavour is full of rounded warming spice and gently heats the back of the throat. There is a delightful vibrancy of flavour here and the long finish is punchy but luxurious.”

How to use green pepper berries?

The taste is salty and piquant; you can use them in numerous ways to perk up dishes: in marinades for meat or fish; in most eggs dishes; fried rice or risotto; salads… the list is exhaustive and open to experimentation. We love to put them in a bowl and snack on them with a beer or glass of wine!
