Long pepper plants produce fruit that is slightly hotter than its relative Piper nigrum. The fruit typically grows around 3 inches long and is dried and crushed into the spice that you will soon come to love. It's already loved and widely-used in many cuisines from India to Malaysia to North Africa.

Beyond its culinary merits, Long Pepper is also renowned for its medicinal benefits: The roots are used for various stomach ailments from aches and pains to constipation. The fruit is used in some medicines to help with coughs, asthma, inflammation, and more
