Step 1

Mix together the spice mix in a small bowl and set aside.

Step 2

Add the oil and three popcorn kernels to a medium pot and turn the heat to medium-high. Once the first kernel pops, add the rest of the popcorn and cover immediately. Shimmy the pot to coat the kernels in oil. Cook until the kernel popping slows to one every 5 to 10 seconds, then turn the heat off. Let sit with the cover on for a minute.

Step 3

Remove the lid. Drizzle in half of the Sichuan peppercorn oil, and sprinkle over the spice mix. Stir vigorously to coat. Taste the popcorn and add more Sichuan peppercorn oil, if needed.
