Kenny brought a bag of these home after one of his first trips here saying they made your mouth numb after chewing them. They certainly do and I've dubbed them "flower bombs" because in addition to numbing your mouth about two seconds after biting into one it tastes like you just took a hit off of a can of lavender scented Lysol. They're tiny little buggers which makes it hard to avoid in a dish. Their official name is sichuan pepper and here's a link to the wikipedia page about them if anyone's interested: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sichuan_pepper

Kenny's dish this day consisted of a huge plate of red chilies along with some deep fried chicken bones and skin. He's reneged on his former claim that he could eat anything if it was deep fried.
