FLYBYJING Original Sichuan Chili Crisp: Premium Chili Oil w/Crunchy Garlic and Shallots - Spicy, Savory, Vegan, Sugar Free Hot Sauce - Good on Noodles, Proteins, Veggies & Everything, 6oz (Pack of 1)

As a picky eater, I was pleasantly surprised with how balanced the ingredients are. I mostly like the fact it is NOT overly salty which allowed me to taste all the ingredients. In addition, it is delightfully spicy.

Love this chili crisp! Perfect flavor for pretty much anything so easy to use and the heat level is perfect. Just use more or less when you cook depending on how much heat you want or not. Love the crunchy texture and the size of this har is good for my use. Very happy there were no leaks or a broken jar upon arrival. Good packaging

Sure this stuff is a bit expensive, but it is delicious and nothing else really compares to the taste. I have used and bought several chili crisps now and although I do like all of them for different reasons, this one has a very unique taste and is perfect for ramens, stir fry, kimbap, rice bowls, etc. I also really like it on pizza, although I have yet to try it on ice cream. I will say you get a lot more oil to chili crisp ratio in the Fly By Jing compared to some other brands that are more chili crisp with less oil and the chilis are finer and more mashed, so a softer texture and less crunch, but it has a very unique taste to it. It is worth getting the larger size - much better value as it lasts forever in the fridge. Not too hot - there is a hotter version, but I prefer the original for versatility.

Other reviews mentioned it arriving very oily. Mine was sealed & packaged well, no mess or oil anywhere on the jar or packaging. Flavor: tangy, earthy and has some heat. I can handle 2of 5 at Thai restaurants and this is about as hot as I'd be able to enjoy. Overall yummy. Not much crunchy bits in it, mostly sauce. Seems like a high price for what is essentially chili oil. I like it, but I probably won't buy again because of the price

First things first, let's be clear that I'm comparing this to the more ordinary "Lao Gan Ma" (at least I'm trusting that that's the correct name) chili crisp I can get at the store, and understand that to me, that's a perfectly fine chili crisp. There's a little texture, a little crunch, some nice warm heat - I like it. I'm a fan. This is an entirely different experience. "Better" is up to you, but for me, yeah. First of all, it's less a chili *crisp* than it is a chili *chew* if we're gonna name it after texture. There's less of a crunch than there is the feel of the preserved beans giving you a little resistance when you hit one. That's not a complaint, but it was a bit of a surprise. I definitely wasn't expecting that. Not unpleasant, though, as the texture's been welcome in anything I've used it in. It's also demonstrably hotter, and a greater percentage of oil. The brand I'm used to, there's a jar full of crisp with a fraction of an inch of oil on top, so you can get a mix in every serving, the jar I got here was almost half oil. It was a little disappointing, but not a huge complaint as the oil itself is spicy and flavorful, carrying a good bit of the umami from those beans, too. And it's definitely spicier than my usual. Not comically so, but enough that it required a little adjustment regarding what I thought I'd be tasting when I first tried it. The main difference, though, is the flavor. Normal chili crisp - for me - is just about adding a little crunch and a little heat. This avoids the crunch almost entirely, packs a little extra heat, and a ton of rich flavor. I still won't be putting it on ice cream in the near future, but I've found that for me it's at its best on tacos. Something I previously wouldn't have bothered putting my old chili crisp on since it'd be redundant, but with this, it really works. Putting it over melted cheese, crostinis that I'm having with soup, adding to salad, tacos - as mentioned, even putting a big blob over a fried egg on some ramen - NOTHING I've tried it with has been anything less than spectacular. Will purchase again without a moment's hesitation.

Solid 3 stars. Expensive, gotta pay for celebrity chef sponsors. Has a very gummy texture, not a lot of CRISP, as stated by product description and title. A lot of oil, not a lot of substance. The original flavor is mild (not spicy) for the most part, has a very smooth/gummy texture, a little numbing but very mild. I don't taste the shallots at all, and the gummy bean texture in this gives a weird mouthfeel. 3 stars due to has good flavor, 2 stars off for price, amount given (mostly oil), and the gummy texture.

The best tasting oil and chilli crisp I know, liked by all my friends and family.
