Grown from the Chinese Prickly Ash herb, Szechuan pepper is a spice native to China and Taiwan. Red and almost rust-like in complexion, Szechuan “peppercorns” give off a scent akin to that of resin. With a wide variety of usages, this intriguing spice finds itself in all sorts of places. From soups and stir-fries to oils and baked goods, the mild taste of Szechuan makes it suitable for many recipes.
When briefly toasted, the lemony hint contained within the peppercorn displays itself fashionably. A key ingredient in several spice blends, the Szechuan pepper is famously known as a component in Chinese Five-spice powder.
