sharp, spicy smelling oil. It is faintly reminiscent of clove oil.
History: The word pepper is
derived from the Latin word piper, which in turn is taken from the
Sanskrit word pippali. It has been used since the times of the
Ancient Romans and Greeks and even the Turks levied a tax on pepper,
while the French, Portuguese and Dutch often went to war in the
middle ages to fight for this lucrative trade from the far east.
Cautions: Black pepper oil may
cause irritation to sensitive skins and using too much could
over-stimulate the kidneys and should be avoided in pregnancy due to
its possible skin sensitizing effect.
