Description
Uziza (Piper guineense) is a West African spice that is full of flavors and nutritional benefits.
The leaves of Piper guineense give a peppery flavor to soups while the dried fruits and seeds give African dishes an aromatic and spicy flavor.
Other names for this spicy plant include West African pepper, Ashanti pepper, Uziza, Iyere, Guinea pepper, kale, Benin pepper, false cubeb, Guinea cubeb, and Sorowisa.
Just like most peppers, piperine is the active constituent that is responsible for most of uziza’s numerous benefits and pungent aroma.
