Cacahouètes piquantes au Poivre du Sichuan 50Hertz, 156 g (5,5 onces)
Imagine this. First you bite into these plump and crunchy peanuts from Kaifeng, China. Then, your lips and tongue start to buzz with a tingling sensation. Slowly at first, then getting stronger, our red and green Sichuan peppers are doing a tingly dance in your mouth.
Now stop imagining and start snacking!
The quality of these peanuts themselves is worth mentioning, which we believe are the finest available from China. Sourced from Kaifeng in Henan province, a region steeped in history as the capital of eight dynasties, these peanuts are renowned for their large, plump, and crunchy texture. The sandy, fertile soils from the Yellow River allow the peanut roots to grow deep, resulting in extra nutrition and size.

1. Sichuan pepper has zero heat and is not spicy at all! People confuse it because it is often paired with chili peppers and Chili is the one that brings the heat
2. Sichuan pepper is not a pepper, it comes from the citrus family
3. These dried Sichuan peppers are actually not peppercorn. They’re the dried husk of the Sichuan pepper berry and not the black seed that is found inside of it.
4. Sichuan pepper is not just from Sichuan, it’s from a bunch of other places
5. The correct name for it is actually flower pepper which is a direct translation from the chinese term hua jiao
Ingredients: Premium Peanuts, Soybean Oil, Salt, Green Sichuan Pepper, Red Sichuan Pepper, Chili Pepper, Sugar, Rosemary Extract, Sucralose, Sodium Glutamate
I don't find them to be as tingly as they used to be, but they are still yummy. More tingles, please!

Their Tingly Peanuts are really tasty. Unlike other seasoned/spiced peanut mixes with only dried chilies, they flavor them in a really balanced way with the Sichuan peppercorns (huajião), so you can taste the distinct flavor of them as much as you can feel their tingly sensation.
I first bought them at Corti Brothers in Sacramento, nearly 85 miles from where I live. When I reached the bottom of the can, I ordered some more through their website. They were great. I gave a can to a good friend.
Love these tingly chocolates. You can’t stop eating them. Wonderful gift for a foodie. Use the peanuts chopped as garnish for spicy chicken dish
