    1 1/2           cups  oil -- corn or peanut
    2        Tablespoons  Japanese sesame oil
       1/4           cup  dried red chili flakes -- shockingly pungent
    1         Tablespoon  Szechwan brown peppercorns
    1              large  garlic clove -- lightly smashed and peeled
    2        Tablespoons  finely julienned fresh ginger root
       1/3           cup  scallion rings -- green and white
    2             stalks  fresh lemongrass -- pounded, then cut crosswise into finger-lengths
                          finely minced zest of 3 to 4 well-scrubbed
                          lemons -- just the minced zest
  
  Combine all the ingredients except for the lemon zest in a heavy,
  non-aluminum 1 1/2 quart saucepan. Bring to 223 F degrees on a deep fry thermometer over moderately low heat and let bubble for 15 minutes.
  
  Remove the pan from the heat and let stand for 5 minutes, then stir in the lemon zest and let stand overnight or until cool.
  
  Remove and discard the lemongrass. Scrape the oil and seasonings into an impeccably clean container.
  
  Makes about 2 cups (32 one-tablespoon servings)
