Chinese Prickly Ash 40g for Mala, Hot Pot & Sichuan-Style Cooking

Chinese Prickly Ash 40g is an aromatic spice associated with the group commonly called Sichuan pepper or hua jiao. These spices come from Zanthoxylum plants and are known for a citrus-like fragrance and the distinctive tingling, numbing sensation they can bring to food.

It is especially useful in mala-style dishes, hot pot, stir-fries, chili oil, spice blends and braised foods. Because β€œChinese prickly ash” can refer to several related Zanthoxylum species, check the package for the exact species and country of origin.

  • Aromatic Sichuan pepper-style spice
  • Characteristic citrusy aroma and tingling sensation
  • Useful for mala dishes, hot pot and stir-fries
  • 40g pack for home cooking

Available from Al Modina Halal Food. Background reference: Sichuan pepper reference.
