Moving inland to the provinces of Hunan and Szechwan, we find that in home cooking liberal use is made of hot peppers. Interestingly, Szechwan *banquet* dishes are more often bland and light, reflecting the influence of northerners who migrated from Peking. This inland area of China gives us the intriguing Szechwan peppercorn, whose distinctive taste affects any dish it touches.
