Szechuan peppercorns, also spelled Sichuan and Szechuwan, are a distinct and flavorful peppercorn. The flavor of Sichuan pepper is aromatic, complex, and a bit lemony. It is not hot or pungent like black pepper or chili pepper. Sichuan peppercorns create a slight numbness and tingling sensation in the mouth. In China, this numbing and tingling sensation is referred to as "ma." The unique mouthfeel is somewhere between a carbonated drink and a mild electric current.
