    Okay smartass, tell me what predominately goes into Sichuan cooking. Come on, it was a bloody meme a bunch of years ago.

        To me it's the Szechuan peppercorns that give the defining spicy taste. Sucks I can't find them easily here.

        :sadness:

              I love that the fandom went so over the top that it broke itself. Almost everyone who would have called themselves a Rick and Morty fan during Season 2 now says "i like the show but hate the fans" instead - I can't think of that happening to any other fandom.

          where the fuck are you that you can't buy szechuan peppercorns?

          as a last resort you can of course get that shit from Bezos, but I am truly shocked there's nothing resembling an asian grocery anywhere near you

          (edit: do not dox yourself)

            I'm in Eastern Europe, and I'm not saying I can't get any, just that it's a mission to do so. Also, we don't have amazon here, which is nice.

              staggering

              to think there are places without asian groceries...that's grim

              I went on a work trip to Warsaw a couple years back and went to a Nepalese place with my Polish co-workers. They were literally blown away that I ate lamb vindaloo (FIVE CHILIS) without dying, and I'm just your average American mayo.

                There are entire countries that don't have a single decent Mexican restaurant. FALGSC is still a long way off.

          God gave you taste receptors in your anus and you'd be ungrateful not to use them.
