What it is
Organic black pepper extract is a concentrated flavoring derived from organic black peppercorns (Piper nigrum). The active compound, piperine, is extracted using solvents, which are then removed to produce a potent liquid or powder.
Why it's used
This extract is used to add a pungent, spicy flavor characteristic of black pepper to foods and beverages. It is often found in savory dishes, sauces, marinades, and sometimes in beverages or health supplements where a peppery note is desired.
Health notes
Organic black pepper extract is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a flavoring. Piperine, the main component, has been studied for its potential to enhance the bioavailability of certain nutrients and compounds. Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated piperine, but no specific numeric limits are typically set for its use as a flavoring agent in the US. Evidence on health effects at typical dietary intakes is limited.
Allergen info
Not a major allergen. Black pepper is a spice and not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens.
