There's a jerky I get every time I swing through a region overseas that uses Sichuan peppercorns and lots of chili flakes/seeds. Spicy and numbing, really tasty and can't really find anything like it back home
Numbing?!
Yeah, it's a different kind of spicy where it's a tingly numbing spice instead of just heat.
I wouldn't call it spicy because it's just so different, but it is something everybody should try. Very unique. I started growing my own a year or two ago (looks like I'll be getting some this year for the first time!) and I'm eager to try them fresh.
Ah yeah, I meant that the peppercorn gave a numbing taste along with the chili's that give a spicy taste.
