1 teaspoon Asian sesame oil
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon minced peeled fresh ginger
1 teaspoon minced green onion -- (scallion)
1/4 teaspoon ground toasted Sichuan peppercorns

Dipping Sauce: Whisk first 8 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Season sauce to taste with chili paste. DO AHEAD Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.
Pancakes: Sprinkle work surface generously with flour. Place 2 cups flour in large bowl. Add 1 cup hot water and blend until dough forms (dough will be sticky). Transfer dough to work surface; divide in half.
Shape each dough half into smooth ball; flatten each to 6-inch disk. Sprinkle each with 1 teaspoon salt, then drizzle each with 1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil. Press and smear salt and oil into tops of disks. Sprinkle each disk with 1/2 teaspoon Sichuan peppercorns, then 1/2 cup green onions; press into surface of dough. Roll up each disk into log and seal ends. Roll out each log to 10-inch-long rope. Shape into coil, then ball.
Sprinkling with flour as needed, roll out each ball of dough to 1/4-inch-thick round, 8 to 9 inches in diameter. DO AHEAD Can be made 1 day ahead. Enclose each dough round in plastic wrap and chill.
Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons peanut oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 pancake to skillet. Cook until bottom is brown and crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn pancake over. Cook until bottom is brown and crisp, 3 to 5 minutes longer. Transfer to cutting board. Repeat with remaining peanut oil and second pancake.
Cut warm pancakes into wedges and serve with dipping sauce. Serve as an accompaniment to/with noodle soups.

Ingredient Tip: To prepare the Sichuan peppercorns for this recipe, toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant and beginning to smoke, stirring often, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and cool. Grind the peppercorns in a spice mill or in a mortar with a pestle.
