White pepper consists of the seed only, with the skin of the pepper removed. This is usually accomplished by a process known as retting, where fully ripe peppers are soaked in water for about a week, during which the flesh of the pepper softens and
decomposes. Rubbing then removes what remains of the fruit, and the naked seed is dried
