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!

Our peanuts have been sourced from Kaifeng in Henan province in eastern China because they are renowned for being big, plump and crunchy. They are then seasoned with our red and green Sichuan peppers that were harvested from Gansu and Sichuan. With a robust citrus-y aroma and that unmistakably tingling sensation, these peanuts are a wonderful companion to a cold beer and a fruity cocktail.

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!

50Hertz Tingly Sichuan Pepper Peanuts Are Really Tasty

★★★★★
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.

A real winner

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
