Sichuan Pepper Dry Rub Recipe for Fiery, Tangy Flavor

3 tablespoons sichuan peppercorns

1 teaspoon five spice powder

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1.25 tablespoons kosher salt

Instructions

1. Toast the Sichuan peppercorns in a dry skillet over low heat until they release their aroma, swirling frequently to prevent burning — about 2 minutes.
2. Let the peppercorns cool briefly, then transfer them to a spice grinder or mortar and pestle. Add the five spice, garlic powder and kosher salt, and grind or crush until the mixture becomes a fine, even powder.
