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 the title states, Fly By Jing is nothing short of amazing. This is the only chili crisp I have ever tried and I honestly cannot recommend it enough!The container does sometimes not come fully sealed. SOMTIMES. But other than the occasional leaking, which is typically a very small amount. Still recommend the product highly.The smell is amazing, I think if I were to have it anywhere near me I’d be able to point it out instantly.Texture is great as well, you can either get a scoop of just the oil, or both the oil and crisps. The crisps have a not so crispy texture but rather an almost al dente type of bite that hides perfectly in any dish. It’s not that hot at all, if you’ve tried Samyung/fire noodles you’ll definitely live through this.This post was primarily to get the attention of the seller, after working a long night I get home, eager to find a package waiting. I didn’t notice due to it being night, but whoever delivered it ever so kindly did nothing to repair the damages caused to the outer box during shipping. Without noticing and just feeling the box it was shipped in was flimsy, I walk through my door just for it to smash on the ground. I tried looking through the options for inquiring about replacing and Amazon sends you through an amazing loop to keep you preoccupied without progress. Please if you can reach out I would love to reconcile the situation.Again I cannot recommend Fly By Jing enough, it is so insanely versatile it can go on about anything. (PB, blue berry bagel & the oil) - it’s like a Thai inspired bagel lol

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.

I found my new favorite hot sauce...and I'm basically a hot sauce connoisseur. The spice level is perfect. It's savory and crispy. I love when I take a bite and there are those delicious caramelized chewy crispy bits. Absolutely delicious. I will never run out of this again. Never. Can I buy it by the gallon please? 😂

This is best , I've tried many , I ordered the small size first to check it out . I was very pleased with it . It comes half filled with liquid and the rest actual spices. It was so good I went through it quickly ,over chicken over stir fry string beans , you can use it on eggs if you want , the taste is very good -not super hot where it overwhelms you ,just spicy ( in a pleasant way) I wish the price was a little lower -That is the reason I give it 4 stars, however I will most likely buy the 16 oz. bottle next .

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.

UPDATE: The seller reached out and offered a refund. I refused because I did not want to take money away from a small business owner. However they refunded me anyway. I cannot say enough good things about the owners. They are truly honest and kind people with a generous heart and it was much appreciated! A rare commodity on Amazon. I gave the 2nd jar to my sister and she actually loved it. She likes salty and spicey, so it depends upon the consumer. If you love spicey stuff with that "umami savory" taste (that certain "something" that makes a savory dish taste yummy), then I think this would be for you. We've been using it on our morning eggs and we like that the best, it's perfect with eggs. :-)I had too high hopes for this after seeing a report on a morning show about it. I had never heard of chili crisp and it sounded fantastic, and the small business that owns it seemed like good people. So I wanted to test it out. Could only find it in a local Target store, but it was very pricey. Amazon charged the same price but at least it was for 2 jars instead of one. Many reviewers said that the texture was oily and to make sure you stir it well (which I did). It was good on stir fry and also eggs, (on savory foods mostly), but we found it to be a bit too spicy for our taste and it had an oily taste (and not the pleasant kind, but more of an aged oily feel and taste). We decided to just keep and use it for eggs and stir fry which it was mostly good with. I put the opened used jar in the fridge to keep it fresher, but one day, when I reached for the jar, the lid felt a bit oily, when I tried to gently open it, it slipped and flew out of my hands and half the contents (worth about $5.50) went all on the front of my favorite shirt and on the floor and freshly painted wall! Luckily, some good stain removal soap removed it from the shirt, and I wiped it off the wall before it could stain. This all happened right before a party we were having, so I cleaned up the floor area before I could take a pic of that also. It reaked of old rancid oil for 2 days after. The biggest complaint of this product is that they did not design the lids well. They are not securely tight fitting in the first place, and if the inner part of the lid gets oily (which is pretty easy), then the lid seems to easily loosen, and could also easily slip out of your hands while opening. Just a warning to people who buy it, be very careful and hold it over your sink when opening. Also, it tasted a bit too salty to us, so a little goes a long way. I plan on giving the second jar to a relative, as we did not really care for the taste enough to keep a 2nd jar of it. If you do buy it, make sure to stir it WELL before using it, or you'll just get a mouthful of seasoned oil.

Level up your tastebuds.I was hesitant to spend $10 on a jar of chili sauce but let me tell you, this is the best condiment I have ever purchased.So far I’ve used it on salads, noodles and eggs, but this chili crisp is going to be on everything.Goodby Franks Red Hot, I’ll now be putting this on everything.Be warned, opening the jar the oil can get on your hands, the jar, where it’s resting but the flavor and quality of this chili crisp is well worth the minor inconvenience of a little cleanup.

It’s a small jar. Came intact. No leaks. Tastes good, not too hot. It has just enough heat. Good on rice and used it on spring rolls. I wish there was more garlic.

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