This chili crunch has a great flavor profile overall, with good smoky notes. However, it's quite a bit spicier than I anticipated, even for something labeled 'extra spicy.' The heat tends to overpower some of the more subtle floral flavors at times. It's fantastic for BBQ, but might be too intense for lighter dishes.
This stuff is super spicy, which I love, but it's more than just heat. The crunch from the garlic and shallots is so satisfying. It works on nearly anything.
Amazing flavor and perfectly spicy, a kitchen essential.
This chili crunch is exactly what I needed for my cooking. It's got that deep umami flavor with a powerful kick from the habaneros. We use it on everything from noodles to roasted vegetables. It's a staple in our pantry now.
Wow, this stuff is incredible. The spice level is serious, probably twice as hot as the original, just as advertised, but it's not a mindless heat. There's a really interesting floral undertone that keeps it complex and flavorful, not just painful. It's been perfect on noodles and makes a dull sandwich exciting. Seriously, you need to try this if you love spicy food.
