In the beginning of my research I used what I thought to be a "generic" ground white pepper.
It is probably the best white pepper I have used to date, I noted it was a very fine dustless
grind. When I researched it, what I discovered was it was not a generic at all. But packaged
and distributed by McCormick. We use Marion-Kay spices in our recipes as a benchmark, I list
their white pepper as Indonesian Muntok ground to 24 mesh in my recipes. When I did an inquiry
to McCormick about their white pepper they informed me that it is sourced from Indonesia and
Malaysia (indicating Muntok and Sarawak pepper) and that their mesh was proprietary, but a fine
grind. Since it was dustless, I would guess it would be a compound mesh of 40/60.
The bottom line here is, if you are needing a good quality white pepper, there is no need to
go to the expense of purchasing solely from Marion-Kay. If you can get McCormick, it will be
fine. They also sell white pepper in 18 oz. bulk under their "Culinary" line, it is sourced
from Indonesia (Muntok) and is their same proprietary fine grind.
