Thai people like black pepper because it rains all year round in Thailand. The black pepper and ginger here are spicy but not dry, and have the effect of removing moisture, which is liked by local people. Pipernigrum (296/ 1500) is a flowering vine of the genus Piper, also known as black pepper, which is native to the coast of Malaba, India. Its spicy fruit is one of the most widely used spices at present.
