About This Blend

Kung Pao chicken originated in China's Sichuan province and is defined by Sichuan peppercorns, the spice that creates the distinctive málà numbing-tingle sensation found in no other cuisine. This seasoning honors that Sichuan character with real peppercorns alongside tamarind, delivering the tartness and complexity that makes the original genuinely irreplaceable.

Flavor Profile

Tamarind delivers a bright, fruity tartness up front; Sichuan peppercorns follow with their signature numbing tingle; and garlic and sesame anchor the finish in the deep savory-nutty territory that defines authentic Kung Pao.
