    1. What a great branded tie in. Very cool that they let you be so free with your plug there, although I *still* think that the best way to enjoy baijiu is straight from a small bottle next to some street bbq of unknown providence at 3am
    2. I had the same problem deseeding before (i.e. our hongyou vid). We've since found the answer to be to slice your chilis on a chopping board, which'll make most of the seeds fall out. Then grab the chili pieces, leaving the seeds on board. You'll still have, like... 20% of the seeds remaining? But that quantity is totally fine.

    Andong, Rice and chili oil combo used to be poor student food. Now, where I lived, food stall often let you serve your own rice, a friend ended up taking a massive bowl of rice, a single block of tofu (literally, the cheapest option on the menu) add tons of chili oil, and went to town. When he finished his tofu, he just add in more chili oil (it's considered condiment, so it's free). Such practice is sadly, rapidly going extinct. Now someone will serve you the rice.

    Hey Andong! First time I made chili oil I prepared the chilis the same way and had the same problem. I have found that roughly chopping a bunch of them on a cutting board, then tossing them on the board is the best way to go. The seeds fall out onto the board and you have the beautiful, not bitter chili flesh you were looking for!

    Love this great approach to Chili Crisp and making it your own!! I had a few questions/notes on the recipe :
    1. FYI: Your written recipe does not include the (SALT, SUGAR, MSG), that had me quickly replaying the video in the middle of making the chili crisp to find the amounts.
    2. Is the weight of the Chili's (200g) PRE, or POST de-seeding?
    3. Do you pour the Baijiu into the oil along with the fermented beans (like Chinese Cooking Demystified did in theirs) or did you just scoop out the beans into the oil?
    Thanks for all the awesome food explorations! Looking forward to seeing where you continue to go :)

      They are different oil from similar or same plants. Thinking it as the regular olive oil and extra virgin olive oil. Canola oil is the newborn kid of rapeseed oil, nurtural, and clear in color good for everyday use. Canadians made them back in the 1950s. The name “canola” comes from “Canada” and “ola,” denoting oil. The southern Chinese rapeseed oil is the old school oil, much browner(green-ish), a bit on the thicker side, and of course more expensive to make. It has a much stronger punch of fragrant, which is not necessarily good or bad. Even Sichuan chefs would use both canola and Chinese rapeseed oil for different purposes.

I had a general idea of what the ingredients should be based on some internet recipes. As noted in your video, the ingredients of your chili oil should really reflect your preferences. It will turn out excellent no matter what you put in.

    • @michaelhuang2477
      @michaelhuang2477 3 місяці тому

      Adding to my original comment, the chili that I've used from making this in the past was the Thunder Mountain Longhorn chili. You could buy seats online from certain places. It does take the whole year to grow but it is very mild and delicious.
      I don't know why people get so nervous about MSG either. By using anything that's fermented, like the black beans, it already has naturally occurring MSG.
      An article published a long time ago in the New England Journal of Medicine about the Chinese restaurant syndrome was later retracted. There's no scientific evidence for MSG causing headaches or any other symptoms. It can probably make your blood pressure go up because of the sodium.

    I tried to make Lao gan ma after watching it on CCD channel and also had the same problems in getting the right chilli. Still, I made a big batch, gave a smaller batch as a birthday gift to a friend (which he ate on the same day and afterwards ate the rest of my other batch..), so I guess after that, I will do it again and do a variation of it (no caraway though :D).
    A pro tip for the first timers: !!!Be very careful when you are toasting your chillis, the Capsaicin (the "heat") is getting everywhere, so please, do it in a well ventilated room!!!

    You really should get a metal wide mouth funnel. Used in canning. It's very handy. I also use it if filling a ziplock bag.

    hello, my wife is from Henan... and after almost 2 years of trying and errors, I feel I'm pretty close to their chili oil taste. I tried asking their recipe when I visit but... omg... I felt like I was trying to buy their children... They are adamant about the secrecy of their recipe over there! (but they will share the techniques, not the proportion and minute details).
    TIPS: When I make some I make a lot for all my (Canadian) family since they are on the sensitive sides. I may or may not, use 1/2 chili / 1/2 paprika... because if you just use less chili, it just doesn't work. Smoked paprika is even better! ( BTW: Since I use this proportion, half/half chili /paprika, I don't need to de-seed the chilies.
    Maybe I'll also do a video to share it when I feel I'm close enough!

    It is indeed not easy to come by some good produce.
    When I go for instance to a local turkish shop in order to get chili powders
    and dried chilies, those are just the "mild filler" for the sauce.
    They are good to dilute the real spicy Haberos, like the Carolina Reaper,
    the different Scorpion Hybrids, or at least yielding amounts of Scotch Bonnet etc.
    For me, the nicest effects do come form a good, rich mixture.
    There are some ingredients, that can be carefully cooked in oil etc,
    but later I also add rather fresh ingredients, lightly fermented garlic,
    and freshly sliced Thai and Habareo Peppers, with seeds and everything.
    A good mixed sauce can have so much curcuma etc, that it looks rather orange.
    The good thing about a dried Carolina Reaper Habanero is, after I take it apart
    and cut it small using my bare hands, for the next meal its enough to
    sometimes dip the fingers of the left hand into to food or in the mouth.. ;o)
    And for the next meal it's the same, now with the fingers of the right hand..
    And until the rest of the week, no matter how often you wash your hands,
    the good stuff is very very present.
    My own fresh produce of Habaneros is most often unfortunately not nearly as hot,
    but some good fruits can maybe reach about 1mill scoville, that's pretty nice.
    One does not need many of them to make a 720ml jar or sauce really, really hot.
    I always cut my fresh Habaneros etc using the same board and bare hands,
    so almost nothing is lost. The next time I cut for instance fruits on that board,
    they taste nice and spicy right away.
    That is why I always know the spice level of what I am slicing right now, and get a feeling
    about how much to add, depending how mild the resulting sauce should be.
    Of course, when one also has some wet or even fresh ingredients in the sauce,
    one must keep it in the fridge. And I use an upper layer of sriracha sauce to seal it off.
    Sriracha is just like a sweet, like a totally harmless ketchup, but in the mixture it
    contributes to the taste and shelf life in the fridge etc extremely well.
    Now they started selling Sriracha in Supermarkets here, which is very nice.
