Spicy Peanuts 麻辣花生!

For a quick fast hit of Sichuan spice, these Mala Penuts 麻辣花生 are perfect! They go great with beer (recommend yanjing 燕京) or baijiu 白酒. Would never find a snack like this in quick-gimme-some-water-can't-handle-spicy-food-HK.


Carmina, snowboard buddy / short-story writer / podcaster extraordinare, introduced them to me on the ski slope (checkout her dark fiction here). I finally found a pack in my local market and they cost just 2.50RMB!

This brand is called 玉辉牌 but I'm sure many other companies make them.
