Pepper is not soluble in water because water is a very polar and the components of pepper are non-polar; very fine powder of pepper can be mixed with water. forming an unstable suspension, but cannot be dissolved.

Salt in comparison although a strongly polar compound is course ground and will take longer to dissolve.
