Sichuan Beef

by georgegsp

Sichuan is a southwestern Chinese province and is also the name of its hot and spicy cuisine, which makes good and occasionally exuberant us of chilli. The Sichuan pepper itself is not hot or pungent but has a slight lemon flavour that produces a strange tingling, buzzing, numbing sensation, setting the stage for the chilli. It appears to act on several different kinds of nerve endings at once, inducing sensitivity to touch and cold and causing a kind of general pleasant neurological confusion.
