Sechuan Buttons
A flower bud that makes the mouth sparkle and tingle.
Sechuan Buttons are small flower buds with a spectacular effect: a fizzing on the tongue, then a numbing sensation and intense salivation, comparable to Sichuan pepper. Used whole or finely sliced, they create surprise in a cocktail, a dessert or a fish dish.
