Sometimes It’s The Simple Things - Sichuan Salt and Pepper


Sichuan Salt and Pepper


I am thinking this is perfect lightly sprinkled over anything at the moment including chocolate chips cookies, but, perhaps my favourite way to enjoy is sprinkled over brussel sprouts, lightly stir fried with a hit of garlic, squeeze of lemon and topped with crunchy almonds, roasted capsicum, avocado and tempeh.

  3. I love Sichuan flavours, the heat is my best friend I think and this simple salt recipe will become one of my kitchen staples, used instead of the regular salt and pepper combo. Gorgeous pics too Sherilyn.
