Common in Chinese and Tibetan cuisines, it’s a key ingredient in Szechuan stir-fries, hot pots, and spice mixes. Use whole, toasted, or ground to add bold character to your dishes. Available in 50g, 100g, and 200g sizes, these pepper husks are perfect for adventurous cooks looking to capture the unmistakable taste of authentic Szechuan cuisine.
