Pickled chili oil

Pickled chili oil

Dried-through chilies are pricked all over to drink up flavor, then covered in a fragrant oil-and-soy blend simmered with Sichuan pepper, cinnamon, and brown sugar.

Instructions

  1. 1
    Step image

    Wash the chili peppers and let them dry until there is no moisture, otherwise the pickled peppers will rot. To make the chili peppers flavorful, I use a toothpick to poke each dried chili all over, leaving it full of marks!
