Originally from northern Congo, Likouala pepper, also known as “Ashandi pepper”, is harvested by the Baakas tribe. Ashanti pepper grows in the wild on vines which creep up more than 20 metres high. Outstanding lingering taste. Used in the traditional Congolese dish: “Ashanti grilled chicken”.
The sweet and juicy flesh so characteristic of pears goes wondrously with the animal notes of white Penja pepper and will enchant all your poultry and blue cheese. Truly divine with foie gras!
