  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1         Tablespoon  Sichuan peppercorns
  1         Tablespoon  annatto seeds
     1/2           cup  finely chopped shallots
     1/2           cup  canola oil
     1/4           cup  finely minced garlic -- about 8 cloves
     1/2           cup  red pepper flakes
     1/3           cup  ground bean paste
  2        Tablespoons  rice wine
  2        Tablespoons  sugar
  2        Tablespoons  light soy sauce

Combine the peppercorns and annatto seeds in a spice grinder (or use a
mortar and pestle) and grind coarsely. Set aside.

In a small saucepan, combine the shallots and oil over medium heat and
cook, stirring frequently, for about 6 minutes, until the shallots are
light gold. Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, for about 4
minutes longer, until the garlic and shallot are lightly browned.

Stir in the red pepper flakes and the peppercorn-annatto mixture, mixing
well.  Add the wine, sugar, and soy sauce and continue cooking, stirring,
for 1 minute longer. Remove from the heat and let cool completely. Use
immediately, or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up
to 3 months.

Makes 1 1/2 cups (24 one-tablespoon servings)

AuthorNote: Our roasted chile paste runs circles around store-bought
versions. The Sichuan peppercorns give it an almost floral, complicated
heat, punched up by red pepper flakes and mellowed out by the ground bean
paste. It's used as a condiment, added to dipping sauces, and used as an
ingredient in cooked dishes. If you are opting for store-bought, you'll
find it in glass or plastic jars, often labeled chile-bean or sate paste.
Look for a brand made without preservatives.
