Ingredients

  • 14 cup szechwan pepper, thorns and twigs removed
  • 12 cup kosher salt (if you can't get kosher, use sea salt, not table salt!)

Method

  • Mix the peppercorns and salt in a heavy skillet and toast over medium heat, stirring, till the salt turns off white, about 5 minutes.
  • Adjust the heat so the peppercorns don't burn, but they will probably smoke a little.
  • Remove the hot mixture to a food processor and process for 1 minute to get a fine powder.
  • Or you may gind the mix in a spice grinder.
  • Pour through sieve to remove the peppercorn husks.
  • Store the mixture in a clean dry bottle, sealed airtight.
