Pepper Sichuan Whole
Product description
Sichuan Pepper is an oriental fruit grown on a small ash tree native to the Sichuan province of China.

The berries have a warm peppery fragrance, with citrus notes & a clean fresh aftertaste leaving a slightly numbing sensation on the tongue. It is the outer husk that has all the flavour, the internal hard black seed is edible but can add a bitter taste. It is a key ingredient in Chinese cuisine and used in some Asian recipes.
