About this item
Timur is Nepali Sichuan pepper — the small husks that make your tongue buzz — and it is the one spice you cannot fake with something from a German supermarket. Whole, so it keeps; toast a teaspoon in a dry pan and crush it just before it goes into the tomato achar, the chhoila marinade or the aloo. Fifty grams is a lot of timur, because you use a pinch at a time, and it holds its numb for a year in a closed jar out of the sun. Ground timur that has sat in a packet since spring does nothing at all.

A review here can only be written by somebody who ordered this item and paid for it — there is no other way in, and neither the seller nor we can add one — so a new shelf starts empty and stays that way until a real buyer has something to say.
