This aromatic Sichuan-sesame salt is a versatile, low-sugar condiment that brings a sophisticated depth of flavour to your kitchen. By toasting Sichuan peppercorns with nutty sesame seeds and chilli flakes, you create a complex seasoning that offers both a gentle heat and that signature numbing sensation characteristic of Sichuan cuisine. It is a simple yet effective way to add a professional touch to homemade Asian-inspired dishes.
Keep a jar of this savoury blend on your dining table to season grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or even simple fried eggs. This homemade store-cupboard essential is particularly wonderful when sprinkled over crispy tofu or aubergine dishes, providing a punchy finish that is far superior to shop-bought alternatives. It also makes a thoughtful gift for any food lover who enjoys bold, spicy flavours.
