This is a
#Macro #Photography image of dried 花椒or Huājiāo, or
#Sichuan #Peppercorns. Native to the Sichuan region of
#China, the
#husk of the
#berry has flavor akin to
#citrus and
#juniper and producing a
#tingling sensation on the
#tongue, making its
#Chinese name “tongue-
#numbing #spice.”
It is considered to be a flavor independent of the “five
#flavor” model or sweet/sour/bitter/sweet/umami in some East
#Asian #cooking.
Some
#cultures acknowledge as many as 8 or 16 “flavors.”
