White pepper requires a more challenging production process than black pepper and it is used far more in Chinese and East Asian dishes than in Irish cooking. It can be used to flavor stocks, marinades or just as a regular seasoning to go along with salt as it doesn’t overpower food as much as regular black pepper does.

When using white pepper it is advised to add it after you have finished cooking the dish because it will release a bitter flavor if overheated during the cooking process.
