HOW IT'S MADE

How It's Made

From toasting the Sichuan Pepper to blooming it in cool oil, every step uses low heat and little oil to keep the numbing aroma bright and sweet — never leaning on heavy oil or salt.

Sichuan Pepper Sauce — made in our kitchen

From our kitchen

STEP 01

Toast the Peppercorns

Hanyuan peppercorns are dry-toasted on low heat to draw out a bright, floral numbing scent, lifted off just before crisp to lock the aroma without bitterness.

STEP 02

Stone-grind to Powder

Toasted peppercorns are gently stone-ground to a coarse powder, keeping fine grains and oil cells for a livelier, more layered numbness than machine-fine dust.

STEP 03

Bloom in Cool Oil

Cold-pressed rapeseed oil is drizzled over the pepper powder and green peppercorn at low temperature to bloom the aroma without bitterness — light, clean, never greasy.

STEP 04

Finish & Rest

Folded with scallion, garlic and a little sea salt, rested overnight to meld, then stored cool — open the jar to an immediate numbing fragrance.

Numb, tingle, done

Sichuan peppercorn brings the ma-la tingle without the oil-and-salt bomb of takeout sauce. A little carries a whole plate of steamed veg or protein.

A jar lives in my fridge at all times. It turns a plain dinner into something with a pulse — the quiet power of a good sauce.
