Sansho Pepper - Japan

A beautiful green pepper from the mountains of Japan is the rare Sansho Pepper. Similar in taste to Sichuan Peppercorns, the Sansho Pepper is a much lighter, lemony and almost pone like flavour that is best described as addictive. Very commonly used in noodle dishes, eel and pork in Japan, Sansho is a essential ingredient for those who crave authentic Japanese cooking. It is also one of the ingredients in Japanese Seven Spice, Shichimi Togarashi.
