Our unique, sustainably-minded pantry ingredients help people explore, develop and realize their own kitchen creativity.

Tingly, numbing, nuanced, complex, and of course spicy! Our Sichuan chili oil is infused with a dozen spices and herbs as well as two types of ground chilis and ground Sichuan peppercorns!
Unlike anything else on the market, our Sichuan Chili Oil offers layers and layers of flavor, not just heat. The flavor concept of “ma la”, common in Sichuan cuisine, is named for the Chinese characters for “numbing” and “spicy”. Szechuan peppercorns provide a tingly numbness on the tongue that accents the spice from the chilis. With a medium heat level, it is meant to be used generously.
Created by a New York Times-starred chef, we use all non-GMO and mostly organic ingredients. No preservatives or MSG ever!
Replicate Szechuan recipes at home with ease, including Mapo Tofu, Bang Bang Chicken, and more. Perfect as a dumpling sauce, drizzled over noodles or rice, or simple over eggs.
