I recently discovered Long Pepper which was commonly used in Ancient Rome. It’s a vibrant, flavorful taste that I love.
My mom gave me a pepper grinder for Christmas. This led me down a delightful rabbit hole of peppers and spices. I ordered all of these from The Spice House. They are top notch, quality products! I can’t wait to actually cook with them!
Today we did a tasting using our mortar and pestle. I’m glad we followed AI’s insistence that we save the Sichuan for second to last followed by Sancho. 🤣 The Sancho is going to be so fun to experiment with!

I ordered these because I wanted to try something new. Boy was o delighted with the wonderful lemon aromas. I crushed the peppercorns using a rolling pin and will be buying more. Brings out an incredible flavor to my pasta dishes and grilled chicken. A must try.
I make Thai heavenly jerky, which calls for thai peppers and lemongrass. I just started using sansho spice in their stead and it's not the same but just as good.
This is a great pepper,I use it in my rub I make, I also use it for tooth aches, it has a citrus taste
Sealed in a bag within jar to preserve freshness. Interesting citrusy flavor!
