Right now, it's the season when the peppercorns are ripe. In Huangcaoling Village, Jingdong County, which is more than 2,000 meters above sea level, clusters of fiery red peppercorns are dotted with clusters of peppercorns on the pepper trees that spread over the mountains.
Huangcaoling Village is hidden in the immeasurable mountains at an altitude of more than 2,000 meters, which makes Huangcaoling peppercorns have a unique strong aroma and refreshing mellow taste. Every season, standing at the mouth of Huangcaoling Village, you can smell the fragrance of peppercorns, which inevitably makes people swallow and have a great appetite.
The pepper tree is covered with large and small thorns, and if you are not careful, you will be pricked by the thorns. Therefore, when picking peppercorns, you should prepare hats, gloves, etc., and "fully arm" yourself.
The plucked peppercorns are spread out in a cool place, air-dried, and wait for the shells and seeds to separate.
Huangcaoling peppercorns have the characteristics of heavy red oil, large and full grain, mellow taste and strong aroma, and are currently popular in the market, mainly sold to Pu'er City, Kunming City, and other provinces also have sales. It is understood that the market price of Huangcaoling flower pepper this year is about 40 yuan per kilogram, and the price of dried peppercorns is about 200 yuan per kilogram.
