Sichuan, or Szechuan cuisine is a style of cooking from the Sichuan province in China. It’s characterized by big, bold flavors from the generous use of garlic and chili peppers, making many of their dishes spicy and pungent. The uniqueness of Sichuan peppers also lends heat and complexity to their flavors. Some common techniques in Sichuan cooking include stir frying, steaming, and braising, to name a few. Many dishes from Sichuan gastronomy are popular and well-known the world over, like chili oil wantons, hot and sour soup, Kung Pao chicken, mapo tofu, and spicy stir fry.
Keep your spices tightly covered and store them in a cool, dry place. Whole spices stay fresh for up to 2 years while ground spices have a 6-month shelf life. Pro tip: red spices such as paprika and red pepper can be stored in the refrigerator to hold their color and keep their flavor longer.
