Cambodian spice jar
Did you know that black pepper from Cambodia is considered to be some of the finest pepper in the world? That before the war of the Khmer Rouge no self-respecting chef in Paris would be caught without it in his restaurant?
I bought this little spice jar filled with black pepper in Siem Reap. One of my favorite memories is enjoying the crunchy burst of the black peppercorns in my pasta while gazing at the silhouettes of Buddhist temples from a covered balcony in the rain.
