An addendum to my previous post, my wife's province is not well known but among Chinese it is known for it's tobacco, liquor and hot sauce lol.

Also @Singlemalt and @Gary Goodson , I no chef but one of my all time favorite dishes my wife makes is a chicken dish. I have no idea the prep or the total list of ingredients but I know 2 of the main ones are Szechuan Peppercorns and whole Anise stars. Something I don't see much of in the US. Perhaps you guys can fucks around and make something akin to my wife's chicken dish with that info. Or maybe I'm just a high rambling bastard.

The way I understand it is Szechuan Peppercorns were banned in the US for nearly 40 years and the ban has only been lifted in the past 10 years. Something about being able to carry a citrus disease I think. So not many people know about the spice I think. The ban is lifted! The spice must flow!

My Chinese ex step mom? I guess that's correct. Anyways, I probably could only name a few of the dishes but was awesome. Grandma type food, just Chinese. Awesome. She always liked when we brought wild deer, rabbit, squirrel, etc. She would take a clever, to the small game, and chop bone and all up in bite size pieces and stir fry them with various eye, mouth and ass burning spices and peppers. I kind of miss it.

Pissed her off to no end that I liked her simple fried rice better than anything else. We all have it. That one back up or necessity meal. I ate a lot of pinto beans with ham hock, sauerkraut and sausage and corn bread baked in a cast iron skillet growing up.

Sometimes simple is just better.

You're a high, rambling bastard, let me speak to Mrs. Bastard. I need this recipe and I speak female (kinda).

You should only plant it outside of the deer tick endemic habitat. They spread Lime Disease. Margarita prices are already volatile.

Plus rep!

Before the chemistry of mordants was winkled out, dye batches were notoriously inconsistent. Impure batches tended to work better. One dye firm (I do not recall the brand) advertised their dyes as superior by dint of "only the finest impurities". To a chemist this is a rich and broad jape.
