Sichuan pepper Sichuan, 4 x 10 g - with floral and citrus notes

Thered Sichuan berries have a distinctive aromatic taste. Their floral and citrus notes (orange peel, bergamot) are perfect for savoury dishes made from duck, fish, pork and chicken. Sichuan peppercorns are great for spicing up chocolate desserts or fruit salads. We recommend grinding them gently in a grinder at the last minute and avoid cooking them, as they tend to become bitter. The aroma of Sichuan peppercorns can be enhanced by roasting the whole capsules. Only very small doses are used for seasoning, but avoid completely black capsules, which are strongly bitter

Sichuan pepper originates from Southeast Asia and is one of the oldest spices used in Chinese, Indian and Japanese cuisine. You may also know it as fagara. It is not a traditional pepper, but the dried red to black capsules of an acacia-like shrub called the yellow pepper tree. The flavour is lemony and peppery, very aromatic and not as hot as the classic pepper. In China, roasted crushed Sichuan peppercorns are used to spice green tea.

Over 200 years of history

Peugeot is part of an emblematic French brand firmly anchored in the public consciousness. Its adventure began in the 19th century when brothers Jean Pierre and Jean Frédéric Peugeot converted an inherited mill into a steel foundry and began producing steel ribbons and springs for multiple uses. Over time, they expanded their production and began to manufacture, for example, sharp saws, crinolines and high wheels. The first coffee grinders were produced as early as 1840. The many inventions and innovations in the culinary world have always put the Peugeot brand at the top. Today, its table grinders are present on the tables of all great chefs across continents and even wine lovers enjoy their wine range.
