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 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.
The Amazon chilli pepper from Colombia is very a strong chilli, amongst the hottest. Its fruity notes and its subtle acidity are similar to Tabasco chillis. It is harvested before being fully ripe which explains its pale yellow colour. It will enliven exotic saucy dishes and your pre-dinner dips.
