Okay, so this is one that
Is pretty weird not so much the fruit itself, but how I got it
In La Paz there is an area known as the witches market
And this is where people go to get items for spell casting. There's a variety of different like little
amulets and Totems and
different herbal concoctions and
One big thing that's really popular here is
Llama foetuses
they take a llama foetus and and you were supposed to bury it with like you're
Your home and supposed to like protect your house as used in like a lot of rituals... bizarre stuff
And I had a great time walking around the market here and just like looking at all this like strange stuff
it really dig that sort of thing but
You know I went to this market not for fruit. I went to this market to look at weird stuff and
just so happened that one of the
Little Herbal concoctions that they have and there you see these like in this market will have this like a piece of newspaper
with a variety of different like leaves and herbs and twigs and little like seeds and stuff that
think you're supposed to like take this and like burn it as like an offering how they sell this is like as a
Premade like mixture that you buy inside
This one mixture that I have here I found something that's kind of interesting you can see
There's some sort of twig there
Here's some sort of seed. I don't know what this is it seems to be the powder that is made into
some like little cake
here's another
Kind of seed thing a piece of being but you may notice one thing that's kind of sticking out right here
These are berries
And I believe that these are actually
pink peppercorns
pretty sure I
Really hope so because I'm going to be one pink peppercorns are actually not related to
Regular peppercorns there are actually completely different species
They just also have a peppery taste to them so often you'll find them mixed in with
Other kinds of peppercorns as white peppercorns and black peppercorns are the same thing
Splatt peppercorns have a seat or seed coat around it white peppercorns have a seat removed
And then when you find one better pink that is a completely different plant. I I bought this because this looks like they are
actually fresh, but
From now, I'm looking at it. They're actually like
Can I drive there's a drive it the same way that peppercorns would be and will give to try
Not to swallow it
just because I
Don't really know
Where this thing's been yeah?
There is a spiciness to it, so I
Thankfully think that this is pink peppercorn after all
In this form they are a lot stronger than the ones that are all shriveled up and dried out
I think the bees are maybe are
Partially dried. Just because like the seed coat on the outside is coming any thin inside was soft
much softer than it would be like on a regular pink peppercorn and
You know the flavor is stronger. It tastes very similar to the black peppercorns that I've reviewed
Especially you can I'm talking about the fresh black peppercorns while they're still green
But it's got maybe a little bit more
Of a bitterness to it and less spice yeah
Not too sure if I could really say anything else really about then
But it's just interesting to me that my managed to find it in such an oDd place
So it's not maybe it's maybe not the most interesting fruit that I've come across
But you know when I've been like looking around the markets here
I just like a so I always keep my eyes open
Because you see a lot of the same stuff for sale as you go through so like apples here and like pears eyerly all
day long but
Every once in a while
I'll see something that catches my interest and they sometimes can be in very
unlikely places in this case hate witches market, so
Yeah, glad that I found this one
and I look like
rounds out the pepper episode that I did way back when it's cool to see the pink peppercorns in their fresh form and
Yeah, I'm going to go and burn this thing and maybe I'll get some good luck
So I was also heading over to this gigantic
Jesus statue in the distance there and
I passed by this plaza and
If you look right here
What do we have but?
Peruvian pink peppercorns, yeah
Now the one that I had at though, which is market that one was like a little dry
Shell with the feet inside. I'm like just going to see if there's any difference for these
Now it's the same so like the first Berry if they just like have like this scaly
Skin they just kind of flakes off and then the seed inside
So if I were to take the berries and like lay them out let them dry out
After like a few days from the sun. I would have pink peppercorns and can use them like that
crazy, they're just like
All over the place there, and it's quite a lot of fruit in there, too
if I were to like
climb this tree and
Just like take these peppercorns and bring them back to the us. I could like make so much money
But I don't have time, so I'm not going to do that guys. I'm sorry, but it was interesting to see the tree
