Szechuan berries were already renowned in ancient China. Their citrus yet spicy flavours are ideal with fish, foie gras, chocolate, strawberries and pineapple. Use lightly crushed just before serving.
This marvelous citrusy berry is hand-picked in the wild bushes growing above 1200m altitude in the peaceful Himalayan foothills. It reveals its powerful flavor complexity crushed or infused. Combining vibrant refreshing notes with suave fruity scents, this little jewel offers delicate grapefruit, jasmine, and bergamot accents. A wonderful fit with fish, scallops, asparagus, and desserts.
This confit is made from fresh mangoes and white Penja pepper.
It can be enjoyed with game, with cooked cheeses (Emmental, Comté …) or with a tasty toast of foie gras.
Originally from northern Congo, Likouala pepper, also known as “Ashandi pepper”, is harvested by the Baakas tribe. Ashanti pepper grows in the wild on vines which creep up more than 20 metres high. Outstanding lingering taste. Used in the traditional Congolese dish: “Ashanti grilled chicken”.
The sweet and juicy flesh so characteristic of pears goes wondrously with the animal notes of white Penja pepper and will enchant all your poultry and blue cheese. Truly divine with foie gras!
