What it is
Oleoresin black pepper is a concentrated extract made from black peppercorns (Piper nigrum). It is produced by extracting the volatile oils and resinous compounds using a solvent, which is then removed to leave a thick, oily liquid.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use oleoresin black pepper to add a strong, pungent pepper flavor and aroma to foods. It is commonly found in processed meats like sausages and hot dogs, frozen meals, and savory snacks where a consistent pepper taste is desired.
Health notes
In the US, oleoresin black pepper is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a flavoring agent. It is used in very small amounts in food, and no significant adverse health effects have been associated with its typical consumption. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated flavoring substances, but specific evaluations for oleoresin black pepper's safety at typical intake levels are not widely publicized.
Allergen info
Oleoresin black pepper is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
