| Features:
 | In the hills of Muntok, on the Indonesian island of Bangka, pepper farmers climb traditional bamboo tripods and hand-pick fruit spikes of red ripe pepper berries. | | | The fruit spikes are packed into rice sacks and soaked in slow running streams of water that come down off the mountains above. | | | 7 days later the outermost skin of the pepper has disintegrated and the peppercorns are piled together for a traditional trampling called nari mereca or the Pepper Dance. | | | The dancing separates the peppercorns from the fruit spike and after a final washing the berries are left to dry in the sun where they will bleach to a whitish-cream color. | | | The coarse texture makes these peppercorns perfect for grinding, and are a perfect compliment to poultry, white fish, and pastas. |
