The Spice Way Szechuan Peppercorns - (4 oz) premium sichuan pepper, dried Chinese style peppercorn.

These have a nice taste and smell. They seem nice and fresh. Fair price as well!

Wow, that's all I can say. Just wow. I've never had Szechuan peppercorns before and boy, have I missed out. These sneaky little peppercorns are not only filled with flavor but also have a neat little surprise. I toasted them first and was struck by the fact that the fragrance was very unexpected. A wonderful fruity, floral fragrance filled the air. After grinding them in my morter I tasted a tiny bit unsure of just how hot they might be. Hmm, they didn't seem hot at all and didn't taste like any peppercorn I'd ever tasted. Then, a few moments later my tongue began to tingle and get a little numb, but not from heat. I don't even know how to describe it. You just have to experience it. I only used a tablespoon in the recipe that called for 1/3 cup but I wished I'd used more it was that good. I will order a bigger bag next time. I love Spice Way. Always fresh, always prompt, always delicious.

good product, just what i wanted

Intense flavor it is a necessary ingredient for certain Chinese dishes or even common tea. As been used for centuries as a medicine in China

Its hard to find these peppercorns in regular grocery stores and my local Asian store only has giant bags. Thys is the perfect size for home use. I add them to my hotpot broth, marinated egg liquid and homemade chili oil. Great flavor, nice and numbing.

These are certainly mouth numbing!

We use pepper corns a lot in our stir fry, but I tell you, I have NEVER opened a bag or bottle of them and been blown back by how Peppery they smelled, before even crushing them. Note: do not use the same amount of them as you do your usual ones or you mouth will be tingling for a while after eating, trust me on this. Seriously don't do it.

Excellent , everything from this company is excellent quality, authentic and fresh
