NPG Premium Sichuan Pixian Broad Bean Chili Paste with Red Chili Oil 7 Oz, Salty Fermented Hongyou Doubanjiang, Authentic Ingredient for Hotpots, Mapo Tofu, and Flavorful Sichuan Cuisine

I make my own large batch chili crisp oil at home based on Sonny Hurrell's recipe. It's so good and it allows me to use a better quality oil for a healthier final product. That said, it's time consuming to make, so this chili crisp will be the stand in. It's VERY tasty, with a pronounced Szechuan mala numbing kick to it. Spicy, yes, but not a one-note spiciness. It has layers of salty-savory-umami as well as a nice mouth feel and volume. When I opened it, I initially dipped an espresso spoon in to give it a stir and a tase. It was so good, I went back like 5 times before realizing I needed to exercise restraint if I wanted some left to drizzle over ramen, dumplings and hand cut noodles. Very addictive. Complements Shanghai scallion oil well (my preferred blend for topping everything). Money well spent.

Best chili crisp oil I’ve had. Great flavor and added heat. I add it to almost everything nowadays and it never disappoints! I find I like it best on eggs and curry’s! The bottle is a good size for the price and I’ve never had problems with it leaking or not sealing properly.

I like this chili paste, though perhaps leans a bit on the salty side. I'm used to something a little spicier and oilier. It's also a little chunky (little bean globs) so if you're looking for a smooth paste this might not be right. But the taste was good!

This is some delicious stuff, I do miss the texture of a moral chili crisp , I tend to use this with a chili crisp to get the best of both worlds

it’s very good topping with any asian dishes

Barely sichuan peppercorn numb heat (mala). Otherwise decent flavor. Still looking for something with that significant zing. I keep trying different brands. Pricey IMO = 1 less star.

Big flavor, not at all overwhelming spice level. I'd even say I would probably prefer a bit more heat but the flavor here is where it's at. Got that mala going on that you want. One of the best jars i've found if not my favorite

I ate this with stir fry shrimp on the side. It made the food taste terrible. Almost like a citrus flavor added. It was spicy but I didn’t like the citrus. I would return if I could.
