Why it's on GiftsFeed

Two 16-ounce jars of Fly By Jing's signature Sichuan condiments

Most chili crisp sold in North America is either loaded with MSG and preservatives or so mild it disappears under a fried egg. This pair commits to the full Sichuan profile—numbing peppercorns, actual heat, and the kind of layered spice you get from brewing and fermenting instead of dumping in powder. The 16-ounce jars mean you can actually cook with them, not just dab a teaspoon on takeout. If you've been using chili crisp as a garnish because the little jars run out too fast, or if you've never found a sauce that balances sweet and umami without landing in ketchup territory, this set gives you both tools in sizes that let you experiment.

Good gift when

  • Home cooks who use Sichuan condiments several times a week
  • Anyone tired of running out of chili crisp mid-recipe
  • People who want both texture and glaze options in the pantry
  • Fans of numbing heat and umami-forward flavor

Skip it if If you're sensitive to capsaicin or unfamiliar with the numbing sensation from Sichuan peppercorns, these condiments may be more intense than you're ready for—start with smaller jars to test your tolerance before committing to 16-ounce sizes.

The details

This set pairs two foundational Sichuan sauces in 16-ounce jars, each sized to last through weeks of cooking without the refill scramble. The Original Sichuan Chili Crisp delivers heat, crunch, and the signature má là tingle from Sichuan peppercorns, made entirely from natural ingredients and crafted in Chengdu. The Sweet + Spicy Sichuan Chili Sauce brings a tangy-savory balance built on fuzhi soy sauce slow-brewed with brown sugar, mushrooms, garlic, and a spice blend.

Both work as finishing touches—spooned over noodles, eggs, rice, or roasted vegetables—but the chili crisp also adds texture, while the sauce leans into glaze and marinade territory. The larger format means you can use them freely without rationing, whether you're drizzling over dumplings on a Tuesday or building a stir-fry on the weekend.

The chili crisp's oil carries fried garlic, shallots, and chili flakes that settle at the bottom, so you can spoon mostly oil for a mellow kick or dig deep for the full crunchy, numbing payload. The sauce pours smoothly and clings to ingredients, with sweetness that doesn't flatten the umami backbone from mushrooms and fermented soy.

Together, they cover the spectrum from fiery and textured to glossy and complex. You'll reach for the crisp when you want crunch and heat, the sauce when a dish needs depth without bulk. Both keep well at room temperature once opened, though refrigeration extends their shelf life if you're a slower user.

Questions

Do these need refrigeration after opening?
Both jars are shelf-stable and can be kept at room temperature after opening, though refrigeration will extend their freshness if you use them slowly.
How spicy is the chili crisp compared to the sauce?
The chili crisp delivers more direct heat and a numbing tingle from Sichuan peppercorns. The sweet-spicy sauce has warmth but balances it with sweetness and umami, so it's milder overall.
Can I cook with these or are they only for finishing?
Both work as cooking ingredients. The chili crisp can be stirred into stir-fries or used as a base for mapo tofu, while the sauce works well as a marinade or glaze. They also shine as finishing touches.
What does fuzhi soy sauce taste like?
Fuzhi soy sauce is slow-brewed with brown sugar, mushrooms, garlic, and spices, giving it a deeper, slightly sweet, and more complex flavor than standard soy sauce.
