**Discover the Culinary Treasure of Northern Thailand with Our Makhwan Peppercorn**
Embark on a flavorful journey with our Makhwan Peppercorn, a rare and authentic ingredient revered in the culinary arts. Harvested from the serene mountain forests of Northern Thailand at elevations above 500 meters, the Makhwan peppercorn (พริกไทย Zanthoxylum limonella Alston) is a proud member of the citrus family, Rutaceae, sharing its lineage with the esteemed Sichuan pepper (花椒 Zanthoxylum simulans / bungeanum) and the delicate Sansho pepper (山椒 Zanthoxylum piperitum).
A cornerstone in many traditional Northern Thai dishes, Makhwan is celebrated for its enchanting citrus-like aroma and its gentle numbing touch, which together contribute to the intricate tapestry of flavors unique to Northern Thai cuisine.
We are proud to source our Makhwan directly from dedicated smallholder farmers in the Phrae and Nan provinces of Thailand. Following the harvest, the peppercorns are sun-dried for approximately ten days, ensuring that their aroma and flavor are perfectly preserved. While traditionally sold locally with their stems, we meticulously clean most of them before packaging. However, the stems that remain are as aromatic as the peppercorns themselves, ready to be used in your cooking.
For the ultimate sensory experience, simply crush these peppercorns using a mortar and pestle or grind them in a pepper mill to release their vibrant essence.
