I will not stand for Serious Eats chili crisp slander. I'll have you know I've made that chili crisp recipe more times than I can count and it is the greatest condiment ever. The mushroom powder is such an insanely good addition
I do have to say I looked high and low for red or black cardamom and used green ones. I also ground up dried mushrooms in place of porcini powder. It is absolutely the best chili oils I have ever had homemade or store bought but damn she is a diva. This is my long winded way of saying thanks for this update 😂
I too LOVE the original Serious Eats version and refuse to deviate! And I have a large following of family and friends who would be extremely upset if I stopped supplying II on a regular basis!
I second this! I've made the Serious Eats Chili Crisp repeatedly and I LOVE it. I recently had a friend try mine and now I apparently owe him some. 🤷🏻♀️ I don't love a mushroom so I use freeze dried eggplant powder instead and chilis I've dried from my own garden. Totally worth the time spent. I'm open to trying a new one, strictly because it's Sohla's, but I will not give up on the original! I refuse!
Can't wait to try this! I actually do have porcini powder laying around, could I add it in here or does it not go well anymore? I never know what to do with it.
Im not a paying subscriber, but in 90 minutes while baby naps you could take up knitting. Or if you want movement, the peloton cult. A lot of my new mom friends love having an at home bike because it accommodates to bundle of joy.
Also, you will never lose it. Your food is a dream, all the time ❤️
So very late to this party but my husband is going to be immensely jazzed with this recipe. He’s our official chili crisp maker and is also very dedicated to following recipes, so using the SE recipe was a labor of love and maybe a little self-loathing. It was of course so delicious and our first experience with chili crisp ever, so we’re eternally grateful. But this one seems like a very reasonable and delicious middle ground. Can’t wait to try!
I've made the serious eats one many times. A journey, but well worth it! Learned so much about different peppers etc. and often just substituted with what was available. Added cocoa, barley koji, powdered shitake mushroom. Excited to try this version though.
Chili crisp is based on a Chinese condiment, where the chilis are crisped in oil. But you could try a Yunnan dry dipping chili that is also Chinese and from a nearby region.

Okay, okay, it’s good. It’s just a diva of a recipe.

Yes, totally! Add 1 tbsp into the dry spice mix before adding the oil
amazing! will report back.
I've been looking for a great chili crisp recipe! Thank you for the delicious recipe--and your impeccable timing.
I was running out of salsa macha, but I think I will do this chili crisp instead. Thank you!! ❤️🔥

This looks great! For those of us who aren’t fans of the tingly Sichuan chilis, can this be made with other chilis? What do you recommend?
Ahh this is so delicious and definitely dollop-worthy!

You have some really fun recipes at Serious Eats. I finally got around to make the green curry French toast last year and it was Amazing!
Ahhhh, I LOVE chili crisp, and I love your writing! Glad I found you here. :)
Hello! Any suggestions for an oil free chili crisp?? I don’t eat oil (heart disease), and would love suggestions. Thanks!!

Love the idea of just cutting ingredients and steps in half to make things easier. This looks great. Will try.
