A small amount reconstitutes into a much larger volume of pepper. The ingredient is literally just pepper, nothing added, so the nutritional density is natural rather than manufactured. Used in trail mix, spice blends, and emergency pantry supplies, this is one of the more nutrient-concentrated single-ingredient forms a vegetable can take.
