Szechuan pepper Sea Salt: Szechuan (or Szechwan) pepper is actually not even a peppercorn. It is a berry from an Asian bush. Eaten alone, the Szechuan pods create a numbing sensation inside your mouth. Szechuan pepper is not as spicy hot as you may expect, it has more of a citrus, woodsy aroma. This is the smell that greets you when you open this jar of salt. Szechwan is synonymous with Chinese cooking. Mixed with salt, an entirely new seasoning is created. From the most extravagant gourmet dinners to sprinkling on top of a plate of French fries, Szechuan Pepper Salt is the missing link that your taste buds have been longing for.
Fusion Sea Salts are the result of our search to combine sea salts with pure natural flavor. When we first thought of infused flavored salt blends, we wanted to fuse natural ingredients together in a way that hadn't been done before. We imagined putting fresh ingredients inside the sea salt without compromising our signature purity. After a long-developed proprietary process, the result is Artisan Salt Company's Fusion Flavored Sea Salt. This is the new generation of gourmet seasoning.
