Roasted Szechwan Pepper-Salt
- add review
- #27898
This spicy salt is traditionally used as a dipping salt but can also be used in any recipe where you want a little "bite" to it. Szechwan peppercorns can usually be found in grocery stores that have a large spice section or a well-stocked Asian food section.

ingredients
1/4 cup Szechwan brown peppercorns
1/2 cup coarse kosher salt*
1/2 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
directions
Heat a heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the salt and peppercorns and stir until the salt turns off-white and the pepper is fragrant. Do not let it scorch (it will smoke a little and that's ok).
Remove from the heat and let cool slightly. Place in a food processor and process for 1 minute or until it's powdered. Strain the mixture through a fine sieve and store in an airtight container.
cook's notes
* Do not substitute table salt or sea salt for the kosher salt.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
