Fine Ground White Pepper from Japan
Finely milled white peppercorns (Piper nigrum) with husks removed, used in light-colored dishes. Although pepper is not explicitly listed in heading 09.10, the product's description as a ground spice aligns with the tariff item's scope for crushed or ground ginger and other spices. The husk removal does not affect classification under this item.
