Sesame Szechwan Salt

Makes about 1/3 cup

This delicious, fragrant salt and pepper blend is wonderful on plain grilled shellfish and poultry; it needs nothing more than a drizzle of ponzu sauce (such as Grapefruit Ponzu Marinade or Mop, page 359 of the book) or a wedge of lime.

  • Good with
  • Seafood: any fish or shellfish
  • Poultry: chicken, turkey, game hen
  • Meat: lamb, pork, veal
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 2 tablespoons cracked Szechwan pepper
  • 2 tablespoons kosher salt
  • 2 teaspoons cracked black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger

1. Heat a small, heavy skillet over high heat for 1 minute. Add the sesame seeds and stir until the seeds start to pop. Remove from the heat and add the cracked Szechwan pepper; stir until aromatic. Add the salt, black pepper, and ginger.

2. Use as directed in a recipe; can be stored in a tightly closed container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
