Lao Gan Ma Spicy Chili Crisp Hot Sauce – Restaurant Size 23.63 oz (670g) – Authentic Chinese Chili Oil with Crunchy Bits

Hands down the best chili crisp and oil on the market. The product is a good value for money. We went through a small bottle in not even a month and bought the big container a week later. The chili crisp has a nice texture and a decent amount of spice - It adds amazing flavour to anything you can think of and can even save The worst dishes! This thing is a must have in any kitchen, I cannot recommend it enough. A well deserved 5/5 stars.

I absolutely love this chili crisp oil! We use it all the time. My daughter has asked me to make sure we never run out so I always buy 2 bottles at a time. Im glad I found these larger bottles! It has great flavor, its not overly spicy, and it adds a lot of depth of flavor to your dish. Its a great addition to any Asian dish but I also like to add it to my eggs.

I purchased this because a recipe I was trying out called for and extolled the extra dimension crunchy chili paste would bring to the dish. Too late for that evening’s meal, but, curious, I ordered a bottle to taste and possibly add to my pantry; I'm so glad I did.Just as described, it’s crunchy, moderately hot (I’m in the mid-range for heat tolerance; when I tone down the spices for family meals, some still complain it’s too hot - when I myself dine at a Szechuan restaurant, their idea of hot is far hotter than I can comfortably enjoy), and I've discovered that picks up all sorts of food - otherwise bland cottage cheese, for instance, is transformed into a distinctive snack or side item in salads.I think this brand offers good value for money - a little goes a long way - and picks up the flavor and texture of all sorts of foods. Highly recommended.

Was so happy to find this product in larger jars! This chili crisp is soooo addictive!!! This stuff is great on everything!! It wakes up chicken sandwiches, fantastic flavor on toasted tomato sandwiches, adds a little kick to a casserole, corn on the cob, . It has a little heat but not overwhelming with an almost smoky hint to it. Get a small jar to try first and before you know it, you’ll be using this stuff like an everyday condiment.

Good quality

I love this stuff. I used to make my own but it was a major effort and didn’t taste as good as this bottle of awesomeness. It’s affordable and has perfect heat. I use these when cooking eggs in heavy cream and it comes out perfect, throw in a hot link and you’ve got a spicy breakfast full of flavor. Great flavor, great texture and perfect heat. Buy this. But it now and bathe your eggs it.

I fried a few cloves of chopped garlic with a pinch of pepper flakes in two TB of olive oil on medium low for two or three minutes, then turned up the heat to medium and added a quarter cup of frozen peas. Once it began sizzling well again, I spooned a heaping tablespoon of Lao Ganma Spicy chili crisp into the pan, stirred it up, turned off the heat and covered the pan. Meanwhile in another pan I had some whole wheat spaghetti (one egg worth of pasta - enough for a main dish for one person) made with an Imperia pasta maker boiling and within a few minutes it was ready. Strained the noodles and poured the sauce over them: wow that stuff is good! I lived in Taiwan for many years and the flavor brought back a lot of memories of eateries and roadside food stands...The downside of this Chinese brand is the inclusion of MSG and a preservative. I will look around and try to see if there are other brands without those ingredients. Overall I really like this and will use it unless and until I find something better.

I saw a chef on YouTube say this was his favorite crunchy garlic, so I tried it. It is quite good. I finished my first jar recently, and just ordered another.
