Burlap & Barrel’s Tingly Mắc Khén Pepper is a wild-harvested spice from the high mountains of Northern Vietnam, closely related to Sichuan pepper. Considered the soul of Northwest Vietnamese cuisine, it is a staple in many dishes of the Thai ethnic group. With its fragrant, numbing, and citrusy notes, this spice brings bold complexity to grilled meats, fish, and vegetables. Try it freshly ground over roasted veggies, bloomed in oil for tofu stir-fries, or as a vibrant substitute for Sichuan pepper in any recipe.
