Szechuan Pepper (Timut), whole

Timut pepper, also known as Nepalese Szechuan pepper, is a rarity from the pristine mountain regions of the Himalayas. Harvested by hand at elevations of over 2,000 metres, this extraordinary pepper is distinguished by its unique aroma, which combines a tingling spiciness with fresh, citrusy notes of grapefruit and lemon. Although botanically more closely related to citrus fruits than to true pepper plants, this exquisite spice adds a special flavour dimension to your cooking.

Timut pepper is not only a standout in Asian cuisine but also imparts an exotic zest to desserts, chutneys, and even cocktails. Whether used in curries, on grilled fish, or in a chocolate dessert, the fruity and spicy flavour of this pepper creates a memorable taste experience. The intense aroma is best released when the peppercorns are freshly crushed just before use.
