In China, it is mainly used in Sichuan cuisine and is revered for its unique aroma. For centuries, this aroma has been used to enhance offerings to the gods and gifts for lovers. Marco Polo brought this plant to Europe in the 13th century, where it was particularly appreciated by the Italian nobility. From the 19th century onwards, it conquered the rest of Europe. Great chefs discovered it at the end of the 20th century and enjoy its aroma and taste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis spice, which is rare in Europe and called ‘flower pepper’ in China, is not actually pepper.
