Chili Crisp

Chili Crisp is an oil-based, spicy condiment from Sichuan cuisine, prized for its crunchy fried aromatics and toasted chili flakes that add heat and texture to dishes. It is very energy-dense and primarily a fat source, providing 65g of fat per 100g, and is typically used sparingly as a finishing condiment. While it supplies mostly unsaturated fats and some vitamin E and omega-3s from its oil base, it can also be high in salt, so using small amounts gives big flavor with a modest portion size; the red chilies also contribute carotenoids that act as antioxidants.
