Tingly Sichuan Pepper Peanuts (5.5oz) (Current Batch Best By Date: June 24, 2025)

Rating: 4.85 out of 5.0 (146)

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

Delicious, Immediately Re-Ordered

We bought two cans of peanuts after reading about them in Food & Wine magazine and immediately re-ordered (plus other items, too). Absolutely delicious and addictive!

Too mouth numbing

I can get behind unique flavors but this was too much. These might be perfect for a gag gift store. The sensation lasts for minutes and the flavor is unpleasant.

Hi Hannah,

Thank you for giving our Tingly Sichuan Pepper Peanuts a try—and for taking the time to share your feedback!

We totally understand that the numbing sensation of Sichuan pepper isn’t for everyone. It’s a bold and unfamiliar experience for many, and that tingle is exactly what makes it such a beloved ingredient in Sichuan cuisine. That said, we’re sorry to hear it didn’t hit the mark for you.

Our goal is to introduce adventurous eaters to this unique and authentic flavor, but we recognize it may not be to every palate. We truly appreciate your willingness to try something new and hope you’ll explore other flavors in the future that might be a better fit.

Thank you again for your feedback—it helps us grow.

Warmly,
The 50Hertz Tingly Foods Team
