Great oil for cooking or adding additional flavor to a meal

Another winner from Soeos! An unigue Chinese flavoring. AROMA: moderate citrus smell. Not over-whelming. TASTE: Bold and strong! Heavy citrus and 'piney' flavors. EFFECT: Lots of tingle and numbness. HEAT: Doesn't have "heat" like some might expect. It is really not from a 'pepper'. Seems to be a good quality oil. Not meant to be a 'cooking oil' it's really just a 'finishing oil' But before you order some I suggest one might taste some first before ordering a whole bottle so you will know what to expect. It is definitely different! I can't wait to experiment with this in various recipes!

This is exactly the secret ingredient to my homemade ramen. The flavor is a cooling, numbing & pine-flavored heat. The local shop adds szechuan peppercorn oil to their broth and I've been trying to find this stuff for a while. This oil is incredibly potent and you only need a few drops mixed in to your soup bases prior to cooking. It adds an incredibly complex heat to Asian meat & seafood dishes, but especially soups and ramens. Include some of this oil with some pepper seed oil, into rendered pork/chicken fat and szechuan chili flakes and you have a complex umami, cooling-heat flavor. I highly recommend it, but please understand the flavor profile of szechuan peppercorn prior to purchasing as it's not for everyone.

This tastes great, amazing packaging, and is a great product. Nothing is wrong with the product at all. Sadly, good luck finding any recipes that use it - you're gonna have to figure out how to use it on your own. Maybe you're into that, but just a fair warning to anyone who enjoys authentic recipes and following instructions from trained experts. If you're the kinda person that just throws random things together and likes to experiment, it's for you, but even then - this is a BIG bottle. I'd suggest the manufacturer make this bottle significantly smaller.

I love the flavor of Chinese pepper corns and this oil ROCKS! My son-in-law fell in love with it so I had to place a second order. Great to add to coconut oil when popping popcorn, or frying an egg. If flavor is your thing... gotta try this stuff.

I can’t comment on the quality because this is the first time I’ve tried it. But if you read that New York Times article about how this is some fabulous savory spicy flavor to add to your repertoire, it didn’t exactly live up to what I was expecting. It tastes like a pine tree got angry.

I love Sichuan peppercorn flavor, and this oil really hits the spot. Just a small drizzle at the end transforms any dish instantly into an authentic Sichuan style meal. I’ve been enjoying it a lot lately! But, be careful not to overdo it. Too much can numb your mouth and ruin the taste completely. I’d suggest starting with just a tiny bit and adjusting to your preference. Just a little bit is enough! Once I finish this bottle, I’ll definitely buy it again!

We love this Sichuan peppercorn oil. We use it all the time and have even given it as a gift. I'm buying two more bottles today. It's very potent and makes your tongue numb and tingly. Tastes just like China. We were in Beijing in 2017 and became addicted to "hua jiao". Then with the pandemic we were cooking so much, I thought I'd see if I could buy some online. We found this and my husband has been cooking Sichan eggplant and Sichuan chicken regularly. When we've given it to friends, they've gobbled it up. Something so new and different tasting. I love this product and can't recommend it highly enough.
